''Letters On India: With Special Reference To The Spread Of Christianity'' is a book written by William Buyers and published in 1840. The book is a collection of letters that Buyers wrote to his friends and family during his travels in India. The letters provide a detailed account of the social, cultural, and religious practices of the people of India, and the challenges faced by Christian missionaries in spreading their message. Buyers describes the customs and traditions of the Hindu and Muslim communities, and their attitudes towards Christianity. He also discusses the work of Christian missionaries in India, including their efforts to establish schools and hospitals, and their interactions with the local population. The book is an important historical document that provides a unique perspective on the early years of Christian missionary work in India, and the cultural and religious dynamics of the region at that time.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
