Description

The story of an unusual missionary. Joseph Booth published a book in 1897 demanding independence for Malawi and played a key role in inspiring an anti-colonial rising eighteen years later. This book tells of his activities in Malawi, South Africa and Lesotho and of his efforts to find support for his cause in Australia, Britain and the USA.
