Have Missions to the Heathen Been a Failure?: Being a Reply to Some Current Objections Volume Talbot Collection of British Pamphlets (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781149912010)

"Have Missions to the Heathen Been a Failure?" by A.R. Symonds addresses contemporary criticisms of Christian missionary work in foreign lands. Published in 1873, this volume, part of the Talbot Collection of British Pamphlets, offers a spirited defense of missions, engaging directly with objections raised against their effectiveness and value. Symonds presents arguments and evidence intended to reassure supporters and convince skeptics of the continuing importance of spreading Christianity to "the heathen." The book provides insight into the religious and social attitudes prevalent during the Victorian era, offering a valuable perspective on the history of Christian missions and their perceived impact on global cultures. This work will appeal to scholars of religious history, missiology, and British colonial history.
