The Widow of the Jewels
London, Society for Promoting Christian Knowledge,
Hard Cover,
Condition: Very Good, Amy Carmichael, born on December 16, 1867 in Northern Ireland; she went to India as a Missionary in 1895. This is a fictionalized true story of two women who were seekers of God, and how God met them in different circumstances. The conversion of these women, one from the uppermost caste of the Brahmans, and the other from one of the low castes. The Widow of the Jewels by Amy Carmichael was first published in the year 1928. Christian missionaries and the Church in India had already laid out a network of secular schools in India that changed the traditional caste-restrictive schooling to caste-neutral schooling. The book reveals an indepth description of the countryside, the people, their beliefs and practices, their prejudices, and their eagerness to somehow reach God through meritorious works. Beautifully illustrated with 8 half tone photo plates. Bound in green cloth boards and spine, spine sunned, gilt lettering bright. Brown stain to lower portion of spine. Inscription to e.p. dated 1929. n.d. to books. circa 1929. sm 8vo, 90pp. Very clean, solidly bound.
