First edition of this exceedingly scarce report and handbook for women missionaries distributed throughout Burma, China, Japan, India, Africa, the Philippines & Assam. Employing an array of gardening metaphors, the compiler details Womens American Baptist Mission efforts in founding kindergartens, Sunday Schools, as well as many other health & welfare programs through their East Asia, South Asia, and India missions. Of particular interest are their ongoing efforts for training girls and women to succeed in their societies, founding and sustaining of Womans Medical Colleges, along with nursing schools in China, Burma, and Japan. In addition, there are detailed tables outlining locations of WABFMS and affiliated missions schools, boarding schools, women native teachers, boys & girls pupils, village schools, kindergartens, and more. The detailed biographies, and index offer excellent period references.
