Cambridge Mission to Delhi information


The Leather-Workers of Daryaganj, a book by George Alfred Lefroy (1854–1919), published by the Cambridge Mission to Delhi in 1884.

The Cambridge Mission to Delhi was an Anglican Christian missionary initiative to India in the mid 19th and early 20th centuries led by graduates of the University of Cambridge. Individual members of the mission community are credited with helping to establish St. Stephens's College, a constituent College of the current University of Delhi, for social reform initiatives, and for providing support in the later years of the Indian independence movement.

The mission was formally established in 1877 under the leadership of Rev. Edward Bickersteth (1850–1897).
