A study tracing the relationships between missionaries and African
Church workers in Kenya in the years 1850-1900, 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 subsequent work in East Africa. It demonstrates
their contribution to the rapid growth of the Church and of
indigenous Christian communities. Yet later missionaries were not
willing to accord to the Africans the position they had a right to
expect. The book recounts their protest and the development of a
Church order.
Similar events in West Africa have been documented, but this is the
first time such a pattern in East Africa has been outlined.
