Description
Abbeokuta or Sunrise Within the Tropics: An Outline of the Origin and Progress of the Yoruba Mission is a historical book written by Sarah Tucker in 1855. The book provides a detailed account of the establishment and development of the Yoruba mission in Abbeokuta, a city in present-day Nigeria. Tucker, who was a missionary, describes the challenges faced by the missionaries in their efforts to spread Christianity in a region that was deeply rooted in traditional African beliefs. She also highlights the cultural differences and the difficulties in communicating with the locals who spoke different languages. The book provides an insight into the social, economic, and political conditions of the region during the 19th century, including the impact of the slave trade and the conflicts between different tribes. Tucker also discusses the role of women in the mission and their efforts in educating and empowering local women.
