Overview
This is a volume about missionaries, written by missionaries. Eight prominent missionaries give accounts of the missionaries that inspired them by memorializing their work and character. A. T. Pierson’s essay is on Ion Keith-Falconer, the “Pioneer in Arabia.” Appointed a professor of Arabic at Cambridge, Keith-Falconer’s life was cut short while on a mission trip to Aden, Yemen, where he died from malaria at the age of 32. These accounts of the brave men and women who spread the gospel overseas will be an inspiration to all Christians.
