It meant nearly freezing when sleeping outside in 50-below-zero weather. It meant canoeing upstream for hundreds of miles to reach remote Indian villages. It meant eating wild cat and other stranger things, or eating nothing for days at a time. But it also meant you were privileged to present the good news of the true Great Spirit to those who were often misunderstood and mistreated. The adventures in this book are rivaled only by the incredible conversions of those who saw the Creator in nature and then worshipped Him too. You will be challenged and inspired by the results of one man who went where the Lord led, with little regard for himself. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEgerton Ryerson Young was a teacher, pastor, author, and a brave missionary to remote Canadian Indians.
