The World MissionaryConference in 1910 was defining event in the history of world missions. Brian Stanley here presents his careful research revealing the compelling story of his turbulent, influential gathering in Edinburgh. This book is both an account of the conference itself and examination of the Protestant Missionary movement as it neared the apex of us sized and influence. The World Missionary Conference Edinburgh 1910 is an erudite and engaging summation of in Stanley's own words, "many sided legacy of the Edinburgh Conference, not simply for the history of the ecumenical movement but also for Christian missions and the wider field of Christian discourse on questions of race and culture". -- from publisher description
