Excerpt from Missions to the Heathen Christian Education of Africans: One-seventh of our fellow citizens who are only one-seventh as far as Anglo Saxons from completely pagan ancestors. Christianizing Heathen Indians: Many bands of American savages (at least thirty in the United States) are still untouched by any form of Christianity after four hundred years of spoliation by whites, and one hundred years of missions to heathen afar. Conversion of Latin Americans Great masses just out from under four hundred years of Spanish misrule are now incorporated with us. According to Roman Cath olic authority they were never yet Christianized.

The Exhortation, the object of which is to win pagans to the Christian faith, contains a complete and withering exposure of the abominable licentiousness, the gross imposture and sordidness of paganism. With clearness and cogency of argument, great earnestness and eloquence, Clement sets forth in contrast the truth as taught in the inspired Scriptures, the true God, and especially the personal Christ, the living Word of God, the Savior of men. It is an elaborate and masterly work, rich in felicitous classical allusion and quotation, breathing throughout the spirit of philosophy and of the Gospel, and abounding in passages of power and beauty.

The landmark text by William Carey sets out the principles of converting natives of foreign lands to Christianity. An Enquiry into the Obligations of Christians to Use Means for the Conversion of the Heathens led directly to the formation of the Baptist Missionary Society, and was to inspire Christian missionaries for generations to follow. The author himself could boast great experience: having amassed oratorical experience during his younger years as a schoolmaster, and as the pastor of Leicester's Harvey Lane Baptist Church. The text contains impassioned arguments which attempt to justify missionary work, followed by a researched history of the practice. Later, Carey discusses charts which measure populations through the world and their religious beliefs. All of these charts are reproduced for this edition, allowing the reader insight into Carey's ambitious approach. After publishing this text, Carey put his words into practice, spending decades following his famous essay's publication journeying through colonial India. He founded one of the country's first universities, and worked to spread the Christian gospel to numerous villages and towns in the subcontinent. Variously praised for his ideals of social reform, and lambasted for his unstinting commitment to colonial methods, Carey's most famous text is a superb entry point to his mind and undertakings.
