By Claudius Buchanan

Book Overview

""An Apology For Promoting Christianity In India"" is a book written by Claudius Buchanan in 1814. This book is a defense of the Christian missionaries who were working in India during the early 19th century. Buchanan argues that the missionaries were not trying to force their religion on the people of India, but rather were offering them a new way of life that would lead to salvation. He also criticizes the British East India Company for their lack of support for the missionaries and for their policies that hindered the spread of Christianity in India. The book includes accounts of Buchanan's travels throughout India and his interactions with the people there, as well as his observations on the state of religion and society in the country. Overall, ""An Apology For Promoting Christianity In India"" is a passionate defense of the Christian mission in India and a call for greater support for the missionaries working there.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
