Publisher's Synopsis
The Memoir of Sarah B. Judson: Member of the American Mission to Burma (1848) is a biographical work written by Fanny Forester. The book tells the story of Sarah Boardman Judson, an American missionary who traveled to Burma (now Myanmar) in the early 19th century to spread Christianity and help the local people. Through the use of letters, journals, and other primary sources, Forester provides a detailed account of Judson's life and work in Burma. The book covers her early years as a missionary, her marriage to fellow missionary Adoniram Judson, and their efforts to establish a Christian mission in Burma. The Memoir of Sarah B. Judson also explores the challenges and hardships that Judson faced as a woman in a male-dominated field, including illness, isolation, and the loss of her husband and children. Despite these difficulties, Judson remained committed to her work and played a significant role in the growth of the Christian church in Burma.Overall, The Memoir of Sarah B. Judson is a fascinating and inspiring account of one woman's dedication to her faith and her mission to help others. It offers a unique perspective on the history of American missions in Asia and the role of women in the early Christian church.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
