Charles Perry Scott First Bishop in North China is an insightful biographical account of the life and ministry of one of the most significant figures in the history of Christian missions in Asia. Authored by Bishop Montgomery, this work explores the dedicated service of Charles Perry Scott, who was consecrated as the first Bishop of North China in 1880. The narrative follows Scott's journey from his early life to his pivotal role in establishing the Anglican presence across a vast and often challenging landscape during a period of intense social and political change in China.

The work provides a detailed look at the growth of the Church of England's mission, detailing the establishment of dioceses, schools, and medical facilities under Scott's leadership. It highlights the Bishop's resilience and his deep commitment to the people he served, navigating the complexities of the Boxer Rebellion and the shifting dynamics of the Qing Dynasty's final years. Readers will find a compelling portrait of missionary life, characterized by both spiritual devotion and practical administrative challenges.
