Description

The author was a Baptist missionary in Bukidnon; she arrived a year before the war started. The stories are about the locale and the people of Bukidnon, focusing on individuals who were converted to Christianity and the trials they faced.

Very little on the war directly, although the author and other American missionaries evacuated to the mountains to evade the Japanese. The last chapter narrates the arrival of a US submarine and the evacuation to Australia of the author and her fellow missionaries.
