Book Overview

""History of the Tranquebar Mission: Worked Out from the Original Papers"" is a book written by Johannes Ferdinand Fenger in 1863. The book provides a detailed account of the Tranquebar Mission, which was established by the Danish East India Company in 1706 in the town of Tranquebar, on the southeast coast of India. The book is based on original papers and documents collected by Fenger, who was a missionary and historian. He provides a comprehensive overview of the mission's history, including its establishment, the challenges faced by the missionaries, and the impact of their work on the local community.

He examines the role of the mission in the broader context of Danish colonialism and the European missionary movement in India.
