''Christ Or Confucius, Which? Or The Story Of The Amoy Mission'' is a historical book written by John Macgowan in 1889. The book provides a detailed account of the Amoy Mission, which was a Christian missionary movement that took place in China during the 19th century. Macgowan, who was a missionary himself, describes the challenges and successes of the Amoy Mission, as well as the cultural and religious conflicts that arose during this time. The book focuses on the question of whether Christianity or Confucianism is the better way of life. Macgowan presents arguments for both sides, and ultimately concludes that Christianity is the superior choice. He uses real-life examples of Chinese converts to Christianity to support his position. ''Christ Or Confucius, Which? Or The Story Of The Amoy Mission'' is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of Christian missions in China, as well as for those interested in the cultural and religious dynamics of China during the 19th century. The book is written in a clear and accessible style, making it easy for readers to follow the narrative and understand the arguments presented.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
