Garenganze: Or, Seven Years’ Pioneer Mission Work in Central Africa by Frederick Stanley Arnot recounts the author’s seven years of missionary journeys through Central Africa in the late 1800s. Drawing from his personal experiences, Arnot describes his interactions with local communities, the difficulties and dangers he faced along the way, and the strength he drew from his faith. This narrative offers a unique window into early missionary activity, while providing observations on the region’s cultures, landscapes, and the role of belief in enduring hardship.
