Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is a collection of letters and personal papers from the early life of Warren Bartlett Seabury, written to family and friends. The documents span from his youth in the late 19th century to his work as a Christian minister in China in the early 20th century. The book is framed by a brief introduction and conclusion that provide some historical context for Seabury's life and work. Seabury's vision was for an expansion of the American mission in China, as he felt that the Western nation both had an obligation to help less well-off nations, such as the Qing Dynasty-era Chinese, and the ability to do so through its powerful influence of Christian missionary work. Many of the letters contained within the book discuss Seabury's mission in China, which he approached with gusto and good cheer. The book provides a thought-provoking, complex, and moving portrait of a young man's religious devotion and life in early 20th century China.
