Overview

A study tracing the relationships between missionaries and African church workers in Kenya between 1850 and 1900, as missionaries increasingly adopted imperial assumptions of Western superiority. It tells the story of the first Anglican clergy in Kenya, their wives and colleagues, their rescue from slavery, their education in India, and their contribution to the Church's growth and that of indigenous Christian communities. The text also recounts later missionaries' protest against African church workers, and the development of a church order.
