Missionary Heroes in Asia are true stories of the Intrepid Bravery and Stirring Adventures of Missionaries with Uncivilized Man, Wild Beasts and the Forces of Nature.Written by John C Lambert, this book is a reprint of the 1910 edition. The contents of this book have been taken from the author's larger book entitled The Romance of Missionary Heroism.A remarkable account of faith and courage, it now ranks among the classics of missionary romance. It narrates six brief accounts of missionaries and their adventures in Asia, including James Gilmour, Jacob Chamberlain and George Leslie Mackay.This book describes the encounters of the missionaries and the chapters which follow gives a detailed account of the missionary activities in the deserts of Mongolia, in the country of the Telugus (Andhra Pradesh, in South India) in Japan, in Taiwan (Formosa), in Tibet, and in China.We must be thankful to such persons who sacrificed everything for others.

Among the annals of missionary service around the world are countless true stories of intrepid men and women. They braved innumerable dangers, toils, tragedies, and triumphs and made important discoveries. These accounts should be read and passed on to future generationsnot in order to praise these brave men and women, but to give glory to the name of Jesus Christ. It was for Him that their lives were dedicated and often sacrificed. These are men and women of whom the world was not worthy (Hebrews 11:38). May these stories of those who have gone before inspire and encourage the current and future ranks of Christians, both young and old alike, to give everything for the sake of Jesus Christ.
