The back cover: "After his junior year in college, at age twenty-one, William B. Eerdmans Cameron Townsend took leave of absence from his academic life to spend a year selling Bibles and Scripture portions in Central America. The year was 1917. This book is about that year, a year that became two, which ultimately became a lifetime of extraordinary service to God and the world's ethnic peoples. But this is more than a mere chronicle of daily events. It is rather a warm, intimate, often amusing, always deeply human and frequently highly dramatic look into the o\early life of one of the world's greatest mission statesmen." An online review: "A missionary story about Cam Townsend and is early days in Central America giving out the gospel. This man is a legend of carrying the Gospel to the outer reaches of Guatemala and beyond. Hiking for miles to give the Gospel out. Wow, what perseverance to make happen."
