Description: Dr. Jean-Paul Wiest, Center for Mission Research, Maryknoll Society: "Most existing studies on Protestant Christianity in Taiwan pay little attention to its original inhabitants or, when they do, focus in a narrow way on one particular group. The most remarkable contribution of this book is to draw our attention to all the non-Han Chinese people of Taiwan. It is a beautiful tapestry, presenting their traditional religious beliefs, customs, practices and cosmology as it traces the origin and development of Protestant Christianity among them." Dr. David C.M. Lai, General Secretary, Bible Society, Taiwan: "Dr. Covell is the most suitable scholar to write this mission history for he worked many years as a missionary in Taiwan where he devoted himself to aboriginal ministry and gained rich experience and knowledge. Even more than this he has returned to Taiwan every summer to continue to help in Taroku Bible translation."
