Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'Francois Coillard: A Wayfaring Man' is an evocative biography of the renowned French Protestant missionary who dedicated his life to spiritual and humanitarian service in Southern Africa. Written by Edward Shillito, this work chronicles the remarkable journey of Francois Coillard, from his early years in France to his extensive labors in Basutoland and the upper Zambezi region. As a pioneer of the Paris Evangelical Missionary Society, Coillard's life was defined by a tireless commitment to the spread of Christianity and the establishment of missions among the Lozi people of Barotseland.The narrative captures the essence of Coillard as a true wayfarer, navigating both physical and spiritual frontiers. Shillito provides a detailed account of the challenges, sacrifices, and triumphs encountered by Coillard and his wife, Christina, as they braved political instability and harsh climates to build a lasting legacy. Through letters, journals, and historical records, the book offers a profound look at the intersections of 19th-century colonial history, indigenous culture, and religious devotion. This volume serves as an essential record for readers interested in the history of Christian missions, African exploration, and the life of a man whose faith compelled him to wander far in the service of his calling.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
