This is the story of the day-to-day life of a missionary doctor who not only had to fight disease but the local superstitions about white witch doctors. His treatment of leprosy has been outstanding as has been his faith in the face of the anti-missionary onslaught. A clean very presentable copy in a Brodart mylar jacket.
