This book is a landmark work on missions in India by none other than Amy Carmichael herself. Telling, because it was written on the cusp between the old and the modern eras of missions, just at the turn of the 1900's. The image of missionary as adventurer and explorer was just beginning to fade, and a revolution of world missions was yet just the stuff of dreams.This book is the gripping story of India in light and darkness. A land of child slavery, witchcraft, and entire populations dominated by Brahmin and Shamans wielding the threat of terrible curses, sickness and death. A land where the light of Christ has come in many places, but Christians in the West have lost interest in supporting the men and women living and dying to bring the gospel of Christ to peoples who might never hear His name! This book is both graphic and beautiful; showing humanity painted glorious in the light, and horrific in darkness. Amy Carmichael will be remembered down through the annals of history.
