Focusing on the overseas mission activities of British and Irish Methodists, the book examines their historical roots and impact. It covers a wide geographical range, from Labrador to New Zealand, and addresses diverse aspects of mission work, including open-air preaching and political involvement. Pritchard delves into the experiences of early pioneers, the establishment of self-governing churches, and the evolving theologies of missionaries. The narrative also highlights the support from those at home, reflecting on the cultural and geographical challenges faced throughout the nineteenth century.
