William Scott Ament: Missionary of the American Board to China is a biographical book written by Henry Dwight Porter and published in 1911. The book chronicles the life and work of William Scott Ament, an American missionary who dedicated his life to spreading Christianity in China during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Ament was a member of the American Board of Commissioners for Foreign Missions, and he played a crucial role in establishing Christian missions and schools in China. The book provides a detailed account of Ament's early life, his decision to become a missionary, and his experiences in China. It also covers his involvement in the Boxer Rebellion and the controversy surrounding his role in the looting of the Summer Palace in Beijing. Through Ament's story, the book offers insights into the challenges and triumphs of Christian missions in China during this period, as well as the complex political and cultural landscape of China at the time. Overall, William Scott Ament: Missionary of the American Board to China is an engaging and informative read for anyone interested in the history of Christian missions or the history of China in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
