The Story of the American Board is a historical account of the first hundred years of the American Board of Commissioners for Foreign Missions. Written by William Ellsworth Strong and originally published in 1910, the book chronicles the founding and growth of the American Board, which was established in 1810 with the mission of spreading Christianity and Western civilization to foreign lands. The book covers the early years of the organization, including its efforts to establish missions in places like India, China, and Hawaii, as well as its role in shaping American foreign policy during the 19th century. Strong provides detailed accounts of the challenges and successes faced by the American Board, including conflicts with local governments, religious and cultural differences, and the impact of major historical events like the Civil War. The Story of the American Board is a fascinating look at the history of American missionary work and the impact it had on the world.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
