Book Overview

The Forty-Second Report of the Upper Canada Bible Society for the Year Ending March 31, 1882 is a historical document that provides a detailed account of the activities and achievements of the Upper Canada Bible Society during the year 1882. The book is written by the Upper Canada Bible Society, which was a non-profit organization dedicated to distributing Bibles and other religious literature to people in Upper Canada (now Ontario) and other parts of Canada. The report contains a wealth of information about the Society's work, including its efforts to distribute Bibles and other religious literature to schools, hospitals, and prisons, as well as to people in remote and rural areas. It also includes details about the Society's fundraising activities, such as its annual Bible Sunday collections and its efforts to encourage donations from individual supporters and churches.In addition to providing an overview of the Society's activities, the report also includes a number of interesting anecdotes and stories about the impact that the Society's work had on people's lives. For example, it tells the story of a young girl who was inspired to become a missionary after receiving a Bible from the Society, and of a man who was saved from a life of crime by reading the Bible while in prison.Overall, The Forty-Second Report of the Upper Canada Bible Society for the Year Ending March 31, 1882 is a fascinating glimpse into the history of religious and charitable organizations in Canada, and provides valuable insight into the role that the Bible played in the lives of Canadians in the late 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
