Letters From Sarawak: Addressed To A Child is a collection of letters written by Henriette McDougall to her daughter, who was living in England while Henriette was in Sarawak, a region on the island of Borneo in Southeast Asia. The letters were written between 1872 and 1875, and they provide a vivid and detailed account of life in Sarawak during that time. Henriette writes about the customs and traditions of the local people, the flora and fauna of the region, and the challenges of living in a remote and unfamiliar place. She also shares her thoughts and feelings about being separated from her daughter and her experiences as a mother and a missionary. The book offers a unique and personal perspective on a fascinating period in the history of Sarawak and the British Empire, and it provides a valuable insight into the life and work of a pioneering female missionary.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
