| 520 | _a"White Queen of the Cannibals: The Story of Mary Slessor of Calabar" by A.J. Bueltmann is a historical account likely written in the early 20th century. The book chronicles the life of Mary Slessor, a Scottish missionary who dedicated her life to serving the people of Calabar, Nigeria, a region marked by darkness due to the absence of Christianity and rife with cruel practices such as cannibalism and the killing of twins. The beginning of the narrative introduces readers to Mary Slessor's difficult upbringing in Scotland, where her father's alcoholism strains the family's finances and stability. Despite her challenging childhood, Mary is inspired by the need for missionaries in far-off lands, particularly Calabar. As a young girl, Mary expresses her desire to preach and educate others about Jesus, showcasing her resilience and determination. After growing up working in the factory and taking care of her family, she eventually offers herself as a missionary, ultimately setting the stage for her remarkable journey to Africa and her impactful work among its people. The opening sets a strong foundation for Mary's character as a determined, compassionate individual ready to confront the challenges ahead in her mission work.
