Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Islam as a Missionary Religion
IT is now nearly two years since Canon Taylor, speaking at a Church Congress, astonished his hearers, and the English Church throughout the world, by asserting that, while Islam had been conspicuously successful as a missionary religion, Christianity, being unsuited to uncivilized races, had, as signally, failed. This startling thesis was not, however, a 'novel one. It had been already stated, and better stated, in Mr. Bosworth Smith's brilliant, but one-sided, book on Mohammed, and it rested mainly on the assertions of prejudiced observers, such as the Roman Catholic, Sir john Pope Hennessy.
