The author provides a comprehensive account of Lal Behari Day’s life, drawing on primary sources such as his own writings, letters, and other historical documents. Overall, ''Life of Lal Behari Day: Convert, Pastor, Professor and Author'' is a fascinating biography of a prominent figure in Indian history who played a significant role in the spread of Christianity and the modernization of Indian society. The book provides valuable insights into the social, cultural, and religious dynamics of colonial India and sheds light on the complex and multifaceted nature of Indian identity during this period.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
