Publisher's Synopsis

Pioneering On The Congo V1 is a book written by W. Holman Bentley that provides a detailed account of his experiences as a Christian missionary in the Congo during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. In this book, Bentley recounts his journey from England to Africa, his struggles to learn the local language, and his efforts to establish a mission station in the heart of the Congo. Throughout the book, Bentley describes the challenges he faced as he tried to spread the Christian faith in a region that was largely unfamiliar with Western ideas and customs. He also provides insights into the local culture and traditions, as well as the political and social climate of the time. Bentley's account is both informative and engaging, providing readers with a unique perspective on the history of the Congo and the role of Christian missionaries in the region. The book is also notable for its detailed descriptions of the people, places, and events that shaped Bentley's experiences, making it an important historical document for anyone interested in the history of Africa or the Christian missionary movement.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
