More about the book
The biography chronicles the life of Johannes Rebmann, a German missionary and linguist who dedicated nearly three decades to East Africa during the 19th century. Influenced by Pietism, he was trained in Switzerland and sent to the Mombasa region, where he faced significant challenges, including opposition and personal suffering. Despite these hardships, Rebmann played a crucial role in establishing the Church in East and Central Africa and contributed to linguistic studies by creating vocabularies for Swahili and N(y)ika, along with a dictionary for the Kiniassa language.
