"This book traces the development of the Scottish Presbyterian mission from 1824 until
the formation of the Bantu Presbyterian Church of South Africa in 1923 as the first
South African outcome of the three-self movement. It considers the development of
this autonomous church, supported by the Free Church of Scotland until 1929, and the
Church of Scotland thereafter in the light of its ongoing missionary purpose until
its union with the Presbyterian Church of Southern Africa in 1999. Drawing from archival
sources, Graham A. Duncan documents the history of South African Christianity in the
context of racial segregation and apartheid. The book foregrounds the distinguished
history of Scottish Presbyterianism in South Africa. It also presents a significant
part of the church history of Scotland, beyond its borders, highlighting the important
role played by indigenous Christians in the growth of global Christianity."
