Book Description
"Among the Burmans: A Record of Fifteen Years of Work and its Fruitage" is a novel by missionary Henry Park Cochrane detailing his experiences among the people of Burma, among whom, he and his wife served. He explains, "The aim of this book is to give a true picture of life and conditions in Burma. Heathen religions, superstitions, and native customs are described as seen in the daily life of the people. Concrete illustrations are freely used to make the picture more vivid. Truth is stronger than fiction. In matters of personal experience and observation I have used the "Perpendicular Pronoun" as more direct and graphic. In matters of history I have read nearly everything available, and drawn my own conclusions, as others have done before me..."
