Description: Scarce guide to Protestant missionary activities in China in 1896. Detailed info on the various missions, their locations, and their activities. Interesting sections on printing presses used by the missions in the country, tract societies in China, "Secret sects in China" and others. Also a brief section describing recent riots. With single page maps of each province indicating the location of missions and two hand colored maps of China. The missions were a major source of discontent in China at the time.
