Scattered Seeds: Or Five Years������� Zenana Work In Poona (1880) is a book written by Mrs. Malcolm Ross. The book is a memoir of her experiences working in Zenana, a term used to describe the women's quarters in Indian households, in Poona (now Pune) for five years. The author describes the challenges and difficulties she faced in gaining access to these quarters and building relationships with the women inside. She also talks about the cultural and religious differences she encountered and how she navigated them. The book provides an insight into the lives of women in 19th century India and the efforts of early Christian missionaries to spread their faith through education and social work. It is a valuable historical document that sheds light on the social and cultural dynamics of the time.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
