330 _aAnna Maria Kool's exhaustive study of the Hungarian Protestant mission movement is a monument to intensive research and is certain to endure without competition. Taking a subject of relatively limited interest, scope, and duration, the author manages to treat it with sufficient breadth and penetration to make it come alive. Her stated aim is to examine, critically and systematically, the activities of Hungarian mission agencies in the first half of the twentieth century and their place in the life of Hungarian Reformed and Lutheran churches. The uniqueness of her endeavor is its focus on a "Second World" country and the relative inaccessibility of the material she includes to all but Hungarian-speaking scholars. For reviving the lapsed memory of a once-thriving though quite immature Hungarian missionary tradition, Hungarian Protestants will remain in the author's debt.
