Publisher's Synopsis
The Chinese Recorder Index is the only complete index and research guide to the Chinese Recorder andissionary Recorder. The core of this monumental work is three separate indexes: The Persons Index includes every individual who is mentioned at least four times over the run of the journal. Index entries for each person are keyed to indicate the location of such biographical information as his or her title, denominational affiliation, dates and locations of service in China, and names of spouse and children, as well as any articles he or she contributed to the Recorder. The Missions and Organizations Index includes references to mission locations, personnel, finances, converts made, attacks sustained, and other data, and to hospitals, schools, opium refuges, and orphanages. The Subject Index includes references to the many topics covered in the Recorder. Following these indexes are lists that provide quick reference to specific information, such as persons and missions by location, women, and medical doctors.
