Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Adventures With Four-Footed Folk: And Other Creatures of the Animal World The primary purpose of this collection of missionary animal stories is to interest boys. At the Ecumenical Missionary Conference held in New York in 1900, one of the speakers said: "For the boy we need stirring literature that he will devour eagerly - books that will arouse within him dormant heroism. The boy has been starved, neglected; for want of proper food he has been lost to the missionary cause. Others have him now. They spare no literature in their work." A secondary purpose is to strengthen the faith of Christians, young and old, in the promises of God. It is a notable fact that though missionaries, especially those in India and Africa, are constantly exposed to danger by reason of wild beasts and venomous reptiles, there is not, so far as the writer has been able to discover, a single case on record of a missionary who has met death in this way.
