  1. Manish Chauhan

    A must-read for anyone interested in the history of Christianity in India. Very insightful and informative.

  2. Kalamkar Pratik Purushottam

    Dubois provides a rare glimpse into the past. Though biased, his observations offer interesting insights.

  3. Vidushi Sharma

    I was captivated by the detailed accounts of Hindu customs. Dubois’s personal opinions were sometimes distracting.

  4. Arush Dutt

    An important historical document, but Dubois’s views are very much a product of his time. Approach with caution.

  5. Ayush Kanojiya

    This book provided great insight into missionary work, but at times, felt a bit preachy. Still, a valuable read.

  6. Yash Namdeo Pise

    Found it rather tedious and repetitive. It may be useful for academic research but not an easy read for leisure.

  7. Palak Shah

    An okay read, but definitely shows its age. I had a hard time with the one-sided views.

  8. Abhijeet Bera

    A real eye-opener! It’s interesting to see India through the eyes of a missionary, even if I don’t agree with everything.

  9. Akagra Ravi

    Fascinating account of missionary life in India. Some parts were slow, but overall, I learned a lot.

  10. Kamlesh

    While the book is informative, the writing style is a bit dry and difficult to get through.

  11. Manaswini Swami

    A mixed bag. Some valuable insights, but also some frustrating generalizations. Worth reading for historical context.

  12. Vijay Laxmi Vashisht

    Eye-opening but also a little unsettling. A valuable resource for understanding a specific historical perspective.

  13. Sakshi Sharma

    Dubois’s letters offer a rare glimpse into th-century India. I wish he had been more open-minded.

  14. Shreya Sinha

    Interesting historical perspective, though the author’s tone can be quite judgmental at times. Still a worthwhile read.

  15. Sarvesh Bhatt

    Dubois’s insights are fascinating, but his perspective is definitely biased. A valuable historical document, nonetheless.

  16. Ansaf S

    Provides a unique look into the past. It’s a bit dense but worth the effort if you’re interested in the subject matter.
