Recast by his brother James for young readers, this is the life of John G. Paton, who grew up in a Scottish cottage home of devout parents, worked as a city missionary in Glasgow and then sailed to the New Hebrides, now Vanuatu. It tells of danger and loss on Tanna, the long work on Aniwa, and his campaign to raise money for a mission ship.
A famous missionary adventure, written with the confident Victorian attitudes toward ‘the heathen’ its subtitle suggests. Download the free EPUB.
