From Shore to Shore: A Journey of Nineteen Years is a memoir written by Agnes Elizabeth Claflin in 1873. The book chronicles her experiences as a missionary in China from 1852 to 1871. Claflin, along with her husband, served as missionaries in various parts of China, including Shanghai, Ningbo, and Hangzhou. The book provides a detailed account of their daily life, the challenges they faced, and the people they encountered. Claflin also discusses the political and social conditions in China during that time, including the Taiping Rebellion and the Opium Wars. The book is a valuable primary source for understanding the role of Christian missionaries in China during the 19th century. Additionally, it offers insights into the cultural exchange between China and the West during that period. Overall, From Shore to Shore is a fascinating account of a woman's journey through a tumultuous and transformative period in Chinese history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
