- Notes
- "By A.G. Blood, M.A., Canon of Masasi".
- "First Edition, 2,500, December 1957'. -- verso of t.-p.
- "It is significant that the growth of the work of the Universities' Mission to Central Africa that it should require two volumes to tell the story of the second fifty years of its history where one sufficed for the first half-century: and even so the narrative has had to be greatly curtailed. To keep the story vivid, I have tried as far as possible to use the missionaries' own words even where exact quotation is not made, and to avoid confusion I have made small alterations in quotations to bring them into line with current usage in spelling and nomenclature". -- Preface.
