This book analyzes the memoirs of 42 missionary kids the children of North American Protestant missionaries in countries all over the world during the 20th century. Using a postcolonial lens the book explores ways in which the missionary enterprise was part of, or intersected with, the Western colonial enterprise, and ways in which a colonial mindset is unconsciously manifested in these memoirs. The book explores how the memoirists sites and experiences are exoticized; the missionary kids likelihood of learning or not learning local languages; the missionary families treatment of servants and other local people; and gender, race and social class aspects of the missionary kids experiences. Like other Third Culture Kids, the memoirists are migrants, travelers, bordercrossers and borderdwellers who alternate between insider and outsider statuses, and their words shed light on the effects of movement and travel on childrens lives and development.
