This book examines the career of Rufus Anderson, the central figure
in the formation and implementation of missionary ideology in the
middle decades of the nineteenth century. Corresponding Secretary
of the American Board of Commissioners for Foreign Missions from
1832 to 1866, Anderson effectively set the terms of debate on
missionary policy on both sides of the Atlantic and indeed long
after his death. In telling his story, Harris also speaks to basic
questions in nineteenth-century American history and in the
relationship between American culture and the cultures of what
later came to be known as the third world.
