Cardinal Lavigerie: Primate of Africa is a biographical work by J.G. Beane, published in 1898. The book chronicles the life and work of Cardinal Charles Martial Allemand Lavigerie, a French Roman Catholic Archbishop who was a prominent figure in the late 19th century missionary movement in Africa. Lavigerie was a passionate advocate for the abolition of slavery and the spread of Christianity in Africa, and he founded several religious orders and missionary organizations to further these causes. The book provides a detailed account of Lavigerie's early life, his education and ordination as a priest, and his various missionary efforts in Algeria, Tunisia, and other parts of Africa. It also explores his political and social activism, including his involvement in the anti-slavery movement and his efforts to promote education and healthcare in Africa. The book offers a comprehensive portrait of a complex and influential figure in the history of the Catholic Church and the African continent.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
