Frances South and South Central Africa A record of fifteen years' missionary labors among primitive peoples Produced by Juliet Sutherland, Julia Neufeld and the Online Distributed Proofreading Team at https://www.pgdp.net "South and South Central Africa" by Hannah Frances Davidson is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The work offers a personal narrative of Davidson’s fifteen years of missionary efforts among the indigenous peoples of Africa, delving into their customs, beliefs, and the challenges faced by missionaries during that period. It is likely to appeal to readers interested in religious history, ethnography, and the dynamics of cross-cultural interactions in a formative era of Africa's modern history. The opening of the book lays a foundation for Davidson's mission by detailing the origins of the missionary efforts initiated by the Church of the Brethren in Christ in May 1894. It introduces her and her companions, including Elder Jesse Engle, as they prepare for a journey to Africa, highlighting their determination and faith amidst uncertainty. Davidson describes their voyage to Africa, the challenges of navigating foreign lands, and their arrival in Bulawayo, where they immediately seek to establish a mission in the Matopos Hills. Throughout this initial segment, she emphasizes the logistical hurdles they face, including communication barriers and the need to learn local languages, setting the stage for the unfolding experiences and the transformative journey that follows.
