Description
The author takes you on a true-to-life journey in the medical-missionary launches along remote reaches of the Amazon and in the island-dotted South Seas; he brings vividly before your eyes the work of mobile clinics in the Himalaya foothills of North India--and in the Bolivian highlands; he tell you of the wild tribes of New Guinea, where whole villages have turned to Christ; and he describes a chain of medical institutions that girdles the globe. Here, too, you will read of the military-training program of medical service that has been recognized by officers of the American Army.
Mr. Mitchell has brought together, in this informative and eminently readable book, a masterly summation of the Seventh-day Adventist Church--its beginnings, its growth, its achievements, the basic premises of its teachings. He has checked his material with church officials.
