Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book follows the missionary journeys of Captain Gardiner, a Victorian naval officer who sought to spread the word of God among the indigenous peoples of South America. In the course of his travels through Chile, Patagonia, and Tierra del Fuego, Gardiner faced numerous obstacles, including suspicion from settlers, linguistic barriers, and the vast, inhospitable terrain. Despite these challenges, he established relationships with several native tribes and made significant progress towards his goal. The author sets Gardiner's work within the broader context of European exploration and colonization of the Americas, shedding light on the complex interactions between indigenous communities and foreign powers. Through Gardiner's journals and other sources, the book offers invaluable insights into the lives and cultures of the indigenous peoples of South America and highlights the challenges and triumphs of missionary work in the region.
