John G. Paton, Missionary to the New Hebrides, Vol. 2: An Autobiography (Classic Reprint)
Enduring faith and hard-won triumphs on the path of a missionary
The autobiography follows John Gibson Paton as he wrestles with danger and hardship while carrying the message of Jesus to the New Hebrides. Through storms, resistance, and intimate moments of conviction, it reveals a life spent in service, sacrifice, and resolve.

The narrative foregrounds leadership, perseverance, and a deep commitment to the Gospel in the face of fear.
