The resources for such a task are immensely rich, including archival sources and the writings of the missionaries themselves. While not possessing its own historian, as the Anglican missions do in the person of Reverend Keith Cole, 1 the Methodist Church produced a number of educated and passionate superintendents who wrote detailed accounts of their times and experiences.
