Book excerpt: Excerpt from To the East by Way of the West Bishop Marvin could not have produced a work like this, if he had not possessed a mind of unusually clear perceptions, a sound judgment, poetic and imaginative powers of a high order, indomitable energy, and unquenchable zeal in the cause of Christ. The benefit conferred upon the Church by this missionary tour, thus faithfully and picturesquely reported, is incalculable. It has made the pulse of the Church beat higher - it has enlarged our view Of the mission field, and suggested plans for its culti vation - it has greatly strengthened the hands and comforted the hearts of our little band of missionaries in China, and those of other Churches in the lands visited by him, and the publication of his letters will do much to fan the flame of missionary zeal in the widespread Connection of which he was so bright an ornament and in which he labored with so much zeal and success.
