Summary This volume collects a number of stories and accounts from missionaries attempting to convert Cherokee tribes to Christianity. One of the first missionaries to establish himself among the Cherokees was Christian Priber, a Frenchman. He learned the Cherokee language and taught many of the tribes simple English to help with reading the Bible. He was arrested by the English and put into prison in Charleston (in present-day South Carolina) because they feared him to be some sort of traitor. The first known Cherokee conversion to European Christianity was in 1773. In 1801, the first permanent Christian mission in the Cherokee Nation was called Moravian Mission, located in present-day Georgia.
