A History of the Oxford Mission to Calcutta

This absorbing history tells the story of the Oxford Mission to Calcutta, a pioneering organization that sought to improve the lives of the city's poorest inhabitants. From its humble beginnings in the late 19th century to its transformation into a major social institution, the Oxford Mission played a vital role in shaping India's modern history. With its vivid descriptions of life in Calcutta, its insightful analysis of the mission's work, and its memorable characters, Longridge's book is a must-read for anyone interested in the intersection of religion, philanthropy, and social change.
