Excerpt from In the Land of the Lamas: The Story of Trashilhamo, a Tibetan Lassie, in Which Are Described Tibetan Character, Life, Customs, and HistoryNaturally, Mr. Amundsen has written from the missionary standpoint, and his story is a pathetic plea for a people who, alas! Are less accessible to the messenger Of the Cross than almost any other people in the world. From frontier stations in India and China the Gospel is being preached, and in a few Tibetan lives, as in that Of Trashilhamo, the power and grace'of the Lord Jesus have been revealed, but the day of the open door and the wide Opportunity has not yet come. The waiting has been long and faith has been severely tried but the night is far spent and those who watch for the morning are bold in hope and sure Of an ultimate victory. If the number of those who pray for the open ing of Tibet, and for the devoted workers who watch at its portals is increased, the Object Of Mr. Amundsen in publishing this story will be accomplished.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
