Mrs. Howard Taylor (1865–1949)

This classic biography recounts the brief life of William Whiting Borden (1887-1913), a young, athletic millionaire who sacrificed all in an attempt to reach Muslim Uyghurs in China for Christ and who died in 1913 following a short illness while studying Arabic in Egypt.

Mrs.Howard Taylor captures the heart and spirit of an educated talented young couple who gave their lives without reservation to reach those in China who had never heard of the One who loved them and died to redeem their souls from death.

There is something to be said for the girl who keeps everything! I found the book report I wrote about this when I was in school. I seemed to have liked the book but then again, I may just have been buttering up the teacher. How about this line: "If I apply patience to my life, I can be patient in waiting for school be out". Hudson Taylor was a patient man. I got an A on the report, BTW.

This is a biography of James Outram Fraser, a Christian missionary who practiced his outreach with the Lisu peoples in South West China.
