This book chronicles the story of the Universities' Mission to Central Africa, which was an Anglican missionary society that operated in the Nyasaland Protectorate (now Malawi) and Northern Rhodesia (now Zambia). The mission worked towards the promotion of Christianity and education in the region, and by the end of the 19th century, it was responsible for the establishment of several schools, hospitals, and churches in Central Africa.
