Description / Abstract
Nazarene Missions Reading Book 1967-1968
From the Foreword: The name of Esther Carson Winans (1891-1928) is almost legendary in the missionary annals of the Church of the Nazarene. This gifted but unassuming woman possessed remarkable linguistic ability, and is credited with having reduced to writing the language of the Aguaruna Indians of the upper Amazon jungles of Peru, and translating the first scriptures into that tongue. She died among these primitive people at the comparatively young age of thirty-seven, after having been among them only five years.
This is a revised edition of the 1951 edition. Both editions are available in WHDL.
