Description:"James Gilmour, Missionary Hero of the Steppes and Deserts of Mongolia" is a short work on the famous missionary James Gilmour. James Gilmour (1843 - 1891) was a Scottish Protestant Christian missionary in China and Mongolia. He served with the London Missionary Society. Gilmour wrote of his exciting missionary adventures in his book "Among the Mongol." The present book is a shorter recounting of Gilmour's many exciting adventures in Mongolia while engaged in the Lord's work. It is the author's earnest desire that the narrative which follows may help to kindle in some minds an enthusiasm for missions like that which characterized Frederick Temple to the very end of his long and strenuous life ; or, better still, that they may even suggest to some who are looking forward to the future with a high ambition, and wondering how to make the most of life, whether there is any career which offers so many opportunities of romantic experience and heroic achievement as that of a Christian missionary. Contents: • James Gilmour • His bold plan • Mongolia • Across the plains • Boarding in a lama's tent • A Mongol menu • Scotch porridge • Learning to ride • Gilmour as pedlar and tramp • Wolves and bandits • The man in the iron cage • The wounded soldier and the living skeleton • Robinson Crusoe turned missionaryWe have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
