Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Syrian Church in India
Buchanan, however, did not write history but only an account of his own travels and observations and, in so far as he touched on Syrian history or Syrian doctrine, his information was imperfect and in many cases misleading. He depended for light largely on the talk of the Syrians themselves. Still, his Christian Researches in Asia, ' which seldom failed to communicate a gleam of his own enthusiasm to his followers, became the chief guide of a band of writers, who, it must be added, never moved out of traditional grooves.
