By Joseph Ivimey

Book Overview

""Letters On The Serampore Controversy: Addressed To Christopher Anderson"" is a book written by Joseph Ivimey in 1831. The book is a collection of letters that Ivimey had written to Christopher Anderson, discussing the controversy surrounding the Serampore mission in India. The Serampore mission was a Christian mission established by William Carey and other missionaries in the early 19th century. The controversy arose when some of the missionaries, including Carey, were accused of financial mismanagement and other ethical violations. Ivimey, a Baptist minister and historian, was a close friend of Carey and defended him and the other missionaries against these accusations. In the book, Ivimey provides a detailed account of the controversy and argues that the accusations were unfounded. The book is an important historical document that sheds light on the early years of Christian missions in India and the challenges faced by missionaries in a foreign land.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
