Details

In the late fall of 1934, twenty-nine-year-old Pearl Strot set sail for China on a Japanese vessel. A recent alumna of Moody Bible Institute’s program in mission preparation, she was embarking on her new vocation. A year later, George Kraft, six years her junior, also set sail for China. He was destined to become a world-class linguist and the compiler of a rare textbook in Tibetan.
Vividly evoking a time of tremendous transition in China and an all-embracing world conflagration, this volume rings with the uncompromising determination of a couple’s faith in Christ and their mutual calling. It also deals honestly and poignantly with the cost of that uncompromising faith: the hardship brought to children who often felt abandoned, the painful separation from families “back home,” and the danger to missionaries—far from modern medical care—of ubiquitous health threats.
