New Forces in Old China: An Inevitable Awakening (Illustrated Edition) (Dodo Press)

Arthur Judson Brown (1856-1963) was an influential American clergyman, missionary and prolific author. He was ordained as a Presbyterian minister in 1883. He preached in various cities throughout the United States. Often termed a missionary statesman, Brown travelled throughout the world, most notably in China and other Asian countries. During the time he surveyed China, he wrote a seventeen-volume diary of what he'd seen and discovered. He will be remembered as a pioneer in the ecumenical and world missionary movements of the 19th and 20th centuries and was an individual who was active in and out of the church. His works include: The New Era in the Philippines (1903), New Forces in Old China: An Inevitable Awakening (1904), The Foreign Missionary (1907), The Chinese Revolution (1912), Unity and Missions (1915), The Expectation of Siam (1925) and Japan in the World of Today (1928).
