A Defense Of The Wesleyan Methodist Missions In The West Indies

Focusing on the impact of the Wesleyan Methodist missions, Richard Watson's 1817 work defends their role in the West Indies against criticisms from Mr. Marryat. Watson argues that these missions not only successfully converted slaves to Christianity but also significantly improved their living conditions and advocated for their freedom. The book details the educational and empowering efforts of the missions, highlighting their contribution to the abolition of slavery and social justice in the region, making it a vital historical document.
