Memoir Of Eliot: Apostle To The North American Indians (1842)

Memoir of Eliot: Apostle to the North American Indians is a book written by Martin Moore and published in 1842. The book is a biographical account of John Eliot, a Puritan missionary who devoted his life to converting Native American tribes in New England to Christianity during the 17th century. The book provides a detailed account of Eliot's life, from his early years in England to his journey to America and his work with the Native Americans. It covers his struggles and challenges in learning the language and customs of the tribes, as well as his successes in establishing churches and schools among them. Moore's book also explores Eliot's impact on the Native American communities, including his efforts to promote literacy and education, and his role in creating the first Bible in the Algonquian language. Overall, Memoir of Eliot: Apostle to the North American Indians is a compelling account of one man's mission to spread Christianity to a group of people who were largely ignored by the European settlers of the time. It offers valuable insights into the history of Native American relations with European colonizers and the role of religion in shaping those relationships.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
