Evangelistic Triumphs in South Africa 1904, 1904

A book recounting Gypsy Smith's evangelical 'campaign' in South Africa in 1904. Perceived by the western and English-speaking public in general as great triumphs at the time, such undertakings are somewhat more problematical in retrospect when seen in their cultural, political and historical contexts.

This book is part of a small archive of objects in connection with Gypsy Smith in the museum's collection. See also a selection of other documents and photographs from the Gypsy Smith archive in the Online Collection.
