Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Romance of Missions: Inside Views of Life and Labor, Land of Ararat When the proposition to prepare these narratives for the press was first made, an almost insurmountable obstacle pre sented itself in the fear that such publicity, if known to our Armenian converts, might seriously mar the simplicity of their Christian character. This evil I have endeavored to obviate by changing the names of persons now living, whose history is briefly sketched in these pages. And I may add, that the pictures are not intentionally embellished; it has been my aim to adhere, faithfully, to the original in each portraiture, giving the very words employed by individuals, and truthfully stating both sides, so far as known.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Bells of Capistrano: A Romance of the California Missions Go there by moonlight, almost any season, There is no winter in that golden climate, Where blooms the rose in April or December. There by the waters of the great Pacific, Its back upon the mountain and the desert, Stands the old ruin, silent in the moonlight. Climb to some eminence and look about you, Look when the moon is highest in the heavens, And falls full on the mission's great quadrangle, Illuminating all the dream-like, slender arches; Each column lights, and all the corridors.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Voice From Abroad, or Thoughts on Missions: From a Missionary to His Classmates There is no romance in the practical and every. Day duties of a missronary. The work is of a humble form, and emphatically toilsome. There isbut very little true missionary Spirit in the world for it is not the sympathy of an hour, nor enthusiasm awakened, by feelings of to mance, but, the pure love of Christ in the soul, con straining the possessor to pray earnestly. And to labor cheerfully without notice or applause, for the lowest human objects; and which finds a rich and sufficient reward for a life of toil, in leading one ignorant slave, one degraded outcast, or one vile and beastly heathen.

Book Synopsis Conflicting Missions by : Piero Gleijeses
Download or read book Conflicting Missions written by Piero Gleijeses and published by Univ of North Carolina Press. This book was released on 2011-03-01 with total page 573 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a compelling and dramatic account of Cuban policy in Africa from 1959 to 1976 and of its escalating clash with U.S. policy toward the continent. Piero Gleijeses's fast-paced narrative takes the reader from Cuba's first steps to assist Algerian rebels fighting France in 1961, to the secret war between Havana and Washington in Zaire in 1964-65--where 100 Cubans led by Che Guevara clashed with 1,000 mercenaries controlled by the CIA--and, finally, to the dramatic dispatch of 30,000 Cubans to Angola in 1975-76, which stopped the South African advance on Luanda and doomed Henry Kissinger's major covert operation there. Based on unprecedented archival research and firsthand interviews in virtually all of the countries involved--Gleijeses was even able to gain extensive access to closed Cuban archives--this comprehensive and balanced work sheds new light on U.S. foreign policy and CIA covert operations. It revolutionizes our view of Cuba's international role, challenges conventional U.S. beliefs about the influence of the Soviet Union in directing Cuba's actions in Africa, and provides, for the first time ever, a look from the inside at Cuba's foreign policy during the Cold War. "Fascinating . . . and often downright entertaining. . . . Gleijeses recounts the Cuban story with considerable flair, taking good advantage of rich material.--Washington Post Book World "Gleijeses's research . . . bluntly contradicts the Congressional testimony of the era and the memoirs of Henry A. Kissinger. . . . After reviewing Dr. Gleijeses's work, several former senior United States diplomats who were involved in making policy toward Angola broadly endorsed its conclusions.--New York Times "With the publication of Conflicting Missions, Piero Gleijeses establishes his reputation as the most impressive historian of the Cold War in the Third World. Drawing on previously unavailable Cuban and African as well as American sources, he tells a story that's full of fresh and surprising information. And best of all, he does this with a remarkable sensitivity to the perspectives of the protagonists. This book will become an instant classic.--John Lewis Gaddis, author of We Now Know: Rethinking Cold War History Based on unprecedented research in Cuban, American, and European archives, this is the compelling story of Cuban policy in Africa from 1959 to 1976 and of its escalating clash with U.S. policy toward the continent. Piero Gleijeses sheds new light on U.S. foreign policy and CIA covert operations, revolutionizes our view of Cuba's international role, and provides the first look from the inside at Cuba's foreign policy during the Cold War. -->

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Garden of Lies: A Romance To maintain that a man's character is determined for good or ill by the circumstances chance throws in his way, by the gay or sorry tricks fate plays him, has ever seemed to me a folly. Yet so von Altdorf maintained most strenuously as we sat, last evening and late into the night, on the terrasse of one of those thronged and gayly lighted cafes along the old Boulevard St. Michel - "La Source" it was - and talked of the great game that we had tried to play, long since, and of how the game was taken out of our hands by greater hands and played to so strange an end. "Else why," demanded von Altdorf pursuing his argument, "why did Denis Mallory happen into the Cafe d'Alencon on that particular evening of all evenings? Why did he not pass by and - end his days in the grave of a drunkard and blackguard? About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Grenfell of Labrador I have much pleasure in acceding to the Author's request that I should write a few lines by way of preface to his Life of Dr. Grenfell. It is twenty years since Dr. Grenfell was appointed Superintendent of the work being carried on by the Royal National Mission to Deep Sea Fishermen in the North Sea and elsewhere round the shores of the British Isles, and from the day he gave himself to the cause of the fishermen his life may be said to have been one long, ceaseless effort to uplift and help the men whose lot he has made his own, and whose perils and hardships he has ever since been sharing. The Labrador Branch of the Society's work now claims Dr. Grenfell's undivided attention, and from June to November he is engaged in cruising about in the little hospital steamer "Strathcona" between the Straits of Belle Isle and Cape Chidley for the purpose of carrying healing and comfort to the dwellers upon those inhospitable, ice-bound shores. In winter he prosecutes the same kind of work with komatik and dog teams. It is the great love he bears these brave men of the North, and his large-hearted sympathy with the stress and hardship of their lives, which leads him to endure for their sake what to most men, reared under similar circumstances, would prove an altogether insupportable existence.
