Among the famous "Three Cs" of European colonization - Christianity, commerce, and civilization - little attention has been given to the role of Christianity except by church historians. In this text, Roger Beck focuses on the critical role that Christian missionaries played as part of the social, cultural, economic, and political vanguard of European expansion. Beck covers the impact Christian missionaries had in Asia, Africa, and the Americas, in areas as diverse as language, education, government, and trade.
