Self Support: Illustrated In The History Of The Bassein Karen Mission, From 1840-1880 is a book written by Chapin Howard Carpenter in 1883. The book provides a detailed account of the Bassein Karen Mission, which was established in Burma (now Myanmar) in 1830 by American Baptist missionaries. The book focuses on the period between 1840 and 1880, during which the mission underwent significant changes and made significant progress in terms of self-support and self-government.The book is divided into several chapters, each of which covers a specific aspect of the mission's history. The first chapter provides an overview of the mission's founding and early years, while the second chapter focuses on the development of the Karen language and the translation of the Bible into Karen. The third chapter discusses the role of the mission in promoting education among the Karen people, while the fourth chapter explores the mission's efforts to promote self-support and self-government among the Karen.Throughout the book, Carpenter provides numerous examples of the Karen people's efforts to become self-sufficient and independent, including their development of agriculture, handicrafts, and trade. He also describes the challenges faced by the mission, including opposition from the Burmese government and the difficulties of working in a remote and often hostile environment.Overall, Self Support: Illustrated In The History Of The Bassein Karen Mission, From 1840-1880 is a fascinating and informative account of the Bassein Karen Mission and its efforts to promote self-support and self-government among the Karen people in Burma. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of Christian missions or the history of Burma.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
