Excerpt from History of American Baptist Missions: In Asia, Africa, Europe and North America The following work was undertaken at the request of the Executive Committee of the American Baptist Missionary Union, and is designed to narrate the origin and progress Of the several missions which have been commenced and sustained by the agency of that association. It is intended to be a history of the missions rather than of the society by which they are con ducted, - Of the colonies which have been planted on distant shores, rather than of the government by whose agency they were commenced, and by whose patronage they are sustained. On this account it records only such domestic changes and events in our missionary organization as have shaped the character or affected the progress of the enterprise for which that organization was called into being.

Excerpt from A History of American Baptist Missions in Asia, Africa, Europe and North America: Under the Care of the American Baptist Missionary Union In his endeavors to secure accuracy of dates and facts, the author acknowledges the valuable aid he has received from the Corresponding Secretaries of the Board, and from the gentle men appointed to examine the manuscript; from all of whom he has experienced the kindest courtesy and attention in con ducting every part of the work. The maps, though small, will be found valuable aids to the text, and the statistical tables con tained in the Appendix serve to render the volume a fuller ex ponent of the present condition of the Missionary Union.
