520    This work rethinks the importance of women and religion 
       within U.S. imperial culture from the early nineteenth 
       century to the mid-twentieth. In an era when the United 
       States was emerging as a world power to challenge the 
       hegemony of European imperial powers, American women 
       missionaries strove to create a new Kingdom of God. They 
       did much to shape a Protestant empire based on American 
       values and institutions. This book examines American 
       women's activism in a broad transnational context. It 
       offers a complex array of engagements with their efforts 
       to provide rich intercultural histories about the global 
       expansion of American culture and American Protestantism. 
       An international and interdisciplinary group of scholars, 
       the contributors bring under-utilized evidence from U.S. 
       and non-U.S. sources to bear on the study of American 
       women missionaries abroad and at home. Focusing on women 
       from several denominations, they build on the insights of 
       postcolonial scholarship to incorporate the agency of the 
       people among whom missionaries lived. They explore how 
       people in China, the Congo Free State, Egypt, India, Japan,
       Ndebeleland (colonial Rhodesia), Ottoman Bulgaria, and the
       Philippines perceived, experienced, and negotiated 
       American cultural expansion. They also consider missionary
       work among people within the United States who were 
       constructed as foreign, including African Americans, 
       Native Americans, and Chinese immigrants. By presenting 
       multiple cultural perspectives, this collection challenges
       simplistic notions about missionary cultural imperialism, 
       revealing the complexity of American missionary attitudes 
       toward race and the ways that ideas of domesticity were 
       reworked and appropriated in various settings. It expands 
       the field of U.S. women's history into the international 
       arena, increases understanding of the global spread of 
       American culture, and offers new concepts for analyzing 
       the history of American empire.
