Abyssinia And Its Apostle by Mary Elizabeth Herbert is a historical account of the life and work of Henry Aaron Stern, a Jewish missionary who dedicated his life to evangelizing the people of Abyssinia (modern-day Ethiopia) in the late 19th century. The book explores the cultural and religious context of Abyssinia at the time, as well as the challenges and successes of Stern's mission. Herbert draws on a variety of primary sources, including letters, journals, and official documents, to provide a rich and detailed portrait of both Stern and the people he sought to convert. The book also explores the broader historical and political context of Abyssinia, including its relationship with European powers and the impact of colonialism on the region. Overall, Abyssinia And Its Apostle is a fascinating and informative account of a little-known chapter in the history of Christian missions and the relationship between Western missionaries and African societies.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
