The Evolution of a Missionary is a biography of John Hyde DeForest, who served as a missionary for the American Board in Japan for 37 years. Written by Charlotte Burgis DeForest, the book chronicles DeForest's life and work, from his early years in the United States to his arrival in Japan in 1874. The book covers his struggles to learn the Japanese language and adapt to the culture, as well as his efforts to establish churches and schools throughout the country. It also delves into his personal life, including his marriage to fellow missionary Mary Pruyn DeForest and their family life in Japan. The book provides insight into the challenges and successes of missionary work in Japan during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, as well as the personal experiences of one dedicated missionary.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
