Description Vol. 1-82 (1883-1964). This illustrated monthly magazine was the prime organ of the Universities' Mission to Central Africa (UMCA) until its merger with the Society for the Propagation of the Gospel in Foreign Parts. It was written by and for educated, articulate and tolerant representatives of the British middle and professional classes which provided both the Society's membership and a significant proportion of its support. Although not entirely free of subjectivity, especially in relation to slavery and colonial rule, those who wrote in Central Africa generally showed great comprehension and sympathy in their accounts of African societies.
