By A.C. Geekie

Book Overview

""Christian Missions To Wrong Places, Among Wrong Races, And In Wrong Hands"" is a book written by A.C. Geekie in 1871. The book is a critical analysis of the Christian missionary movement during the 19th century. Geekie argues that the missionary movement was misguided in its approach, targeting the wrong places and the wrong races. He also criticizes the way in which the movement was often controlled by colonial powers and used as a tool for political and economic gain. Throughout the book, Geekie highlights the negative impact that these misguided missions had on the indigenous populations they were meant to serve. The book offers a thought-provoking critique of the Christian missionary movement and raises important questions about the role of religion in colonialism and imperialism.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
