Dark and Stormy Days at Kumassi, 1900, Or Missionary Experience in Ashanti
Excerpt from Dark and Stormy Days at Kumassi, 1900, or Missionary Experience in Ashanti: According to the Diary of Rev. Fritz Ramseyer Mr. And Mrs. Ramseyer and their Missionary comrades have a thrilling story to tell. It is a story as full of peril and privation, of endurance and heroism, and of God's own delivering hand, as the story of the relief of the Legations at Pekin only a little later in 1900.

Transport to Another World
Mementoes of HMS Tamar abound in Hong Kong, but what is really known about this troopship and her role in the maintenance of British imperial rule?
