In 1801 the Moravians, a Pietist Germanspeaking group from Central Europe, founded the Springplace Mission at a site in presentday northwestern Georgia. The Moravians remained among the Cherokees for more than thirty years, longer than any other Christian group. John and Anna Rosina Gambold served at the mission from 1805 until Annas death in 1821. The principal author of the diaries, Anna, chronicles the intimate details of Cherokee daily life.This edition of the diary includes the entire text in translation as well as a critical apparatus, contextual introductory material, and extensive notes. Rowena McClintons translation from German script, an archaic writing convention, makes these primary eyewitness accounts available in English for the first time. These diaries will be of immense value for understanding Cherokee culture and history during the early nineteenth century and missionary efforts in the South during this time. McClinton gained unlimited access to the diaries and other supporting documents for the completion of this project, published with the consent of the Moravian Church of the Southern Province.Volume 1 includes diary entries from 180513, a preface, and an introduction. Volume 2 includes diary entries from 181421, the editors epilogue, and a names index and a subject index for both volumes.
