Description

This account of the travel experiences of the missionaries provide us with detailed insights into the areas they travelled. Details regarding the price of various services and goods, transportation costs and the general make up of cities and scenery help to historically define aspects of life within the period. In general, the missionary reports lead to a wider theme of how missionaries in the area, through their travels, gave valuable information on the regions they passed through. Details regarding the general health of the spread of Christianity should be taken with a pinch of salt due to slight exaggeration to ensure they have continued support from the church for future missions.
