The late Andrew C. Ross was a Scottish missionary in Malawi between
1958 and 1965 and one of the founding members of the Malawi
Congress Party. Like many other Scottish missionaries of the
period, he deeply opposed the Central African Federation, and was a
strong supporter of the emerging Malawian nationalist movement.
When, following the declaration of a State of Emergency in March
1959, many of the political leaders of the Nyasaland African
Congress were detained, Andrew regularly visited those held at
Kanjedza near Limbe - visits which helped to deepen both his
friendship with them, and his commitment to their cause. Thus, when
Orton Chirwa was released from detention later in 1959, and
persuaded to become the temporary leader of the newly formed Malawi
Congress Party, Andrew Ross was one of the first to join, becoming
the proud holder of MCP card number six. This book covers the
period 1875-1965 and includes a Foreword by Professor George
Shepperson.
