Has recently published. Its object is to give a general account of all Christian Missions in the Telugu country and to give in greater detail a sketch of the particular work which the s.p.g. Helps to support. The Society is greatly indebted to Mr. Hibbert-ware for the writing of this book, which we trust may be the means of extending interest in a part of India where Christian missionary work is spreading more rapidly than in almost any other part. Mr. Hibbert-ware, who went out to India as a missionary in 1898, is a Fellow of the Punjab University and was for some time Principal of S. Stephen's Univer sity College, Delhi. He is now working at Kalasabad in the Telugu country. We desire also to acknowledge the large amount of help received from the Rev. Canon Inman, who provided most of the material for the two chapters dealing with the history of the Mission; and to the Rev. A. F. R. Bird, who collected much of the information contained in the book. We are also greatly indebted to the Rev. H. G. Downes and the Rev. A. W. B. Higgens for reading and correcting the proofs after Mr. Hibbert-ware's return to India. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
