What is The Book of Missionary Heroes. about?
The great heroes and heroines whose story is told in this book have run across the centuries over the world to us. Some of them are alive today, as heroic as those who have gone. But all of them say the same thing to us of the new world who are coming after them: "Take the torch." The greatest of them all, when he came to the very end of his days, as he fell and passed on the torch to others, said, "I have run my course." But to us who are coming on as torch-bearers after him he spoke in urgent words -- written to the people at Corinth where the Isthmian races were run: "Do you not know that they which run in a race all run, but one wins the prize? So run, that ye may be victors."--Prologue
