Publisher's Synopsis
"Pen Picture of the Shantung Mission, China" offers a glimpse into the activities and experiences of Presbyterian missionaries in the Shantung (now Shandong) province of China in the early 20th century. Published in 1921, this work by the Presbyterian Church in the U.S.A. Board of Foreign Missions provides insights into the daily life, challenges, and goals of those dedicated to spreading Christianity in a foreign land. It serves as a valuable primary source for understanding the history of American foreign missions, the cultural interactions between Western missionaries and the Chinese population, and the broader historical context of China during this period.
