Condition note: Vintage book is very well worn on the cover, page edges are smudged, but book is sturdy and intact and will have an owner mark.

A missionary biography of high drama. Here is a picture of a truly "un-ugly American" who brilliantly served his country, his world, and his God as a medical missionary in China. Here, too, is an intimate picture of China and its leaders at a time when Christian missionaries were pioneering in the Far East.
