This book has been written to commemorate 175 years of the
Presbyterian Church of Ghana. It intends to provide a balanced
account of the role of the Presbyterian Church of Ghana since the
early nineteenth century, and as such, sheds much light on the
history and development of Ghana over the past two centuries. It
covers the contributions of the Basel missionaries and their
Scottish successors, and emphasises the contributions of the locals
to the mission, particularly in developing local languages,
translating sacred texts and compiling dictionaries and proverbs.
It illuminates the achievements of the Church and the contributions
it has made to the development of moral and spiritual life,
education, agriculture, health, Ghanaian languages and music.
However criticism of the missionaries is not reserved, being
levelled at the rigidity and intolerant attitude of the
missionaries towards the indigenous culture.
