About the book

"Christianity has been spread in Africa by Africans. These studies, by prominent Tanzanian and American historians, anthropologists, political scientists and church people, explore a complex set of historical issues regarding the translation of religious meanings across cultural boundaries; the historical values, beliefs and practices through which Africans interpreted and appropriated mission Christianity; the religious as well as social appeals of the new faith; and the vital roles played by African catechists, evangelists, teachers and translators in the spread of Christianity and development of an African church."--BOOK JACKET.
