James Gilmour was an extrordinary man with an extrordinary call. Gilmour traveled from England into inland China to study Chinese and Mongolian, and then he trekked thousands of miles into the icy Mongolian Plateau, to lay down his life for the people there! At the beginning, "...the news of the Tientsin massacre reached Peking. A Roman Catholic convent had been destroyed and thirteen French ministers killed. Very great uncertainty prevailed as to whether this indicated a further purpose of attacking all missions and all foreigners, and for a while things looked very dark...When others were wondering whether they might not have to retreat, he, alone, in almost total ignorance of the language, entirely unfamiliar with the country, went up to the great Mongolian plain, and entered upon the service so close to his heart-" ... to win the Mongol people for Christ! Discover for yourself the power of the gospel to change a people, mold a nation and bring them to the threshold of their God-ordained destiny!

Not illustrated. 1893 edition. Excerpt: ... CHAPTER II THE FIRST JOURNEY ACROSS THE DESERT OF GOBI IN May 1870, James Gilmour reached Peking, and became attached to the London Mission in that city. He had been there only a little over a month when the massacre of Roman Catholics at Tientsin took place. It was in keeping with the character of the man, that at a time of difficulty and danger, when the air was full of rumours, and when many of the most experienced missionaries were anxiously con- sulting how to secure personal safety for themselves and their friends, his chief concern was how to get the work done for which he had been sent. He finally resolved to get that work done by doing it; and so, ignorant of the language, an absolute stranger to the country, taking his life in his hand, with childlike trust in the loving care of the God to whose service he had fully consecrated himself, he left Peking and went forth to attempt to conquer Mongolia for Christ. Missionary annals of the nine- teenth century abound in heroic and self-denying deeds, but even they can furnish no finer example of whole-hearted devotion to work. It was also characteristic of James Gilmour to keep a full record of his daily experiences, and of his spiritual state from time to time. His diary of those early and lonely days and years of Mongolian life is unique. This generation will never again see through eyes so keen and so sympathetic Mongol life and character in all its freshness. Hence it has been thought advisable to put on permanent record, in an easily accessible form, his own story of his hopes and fears, his wearying journeys, his strenuous toil in acquiring the language, his willingness to share all the hardships of winter life in a Mongol tent, if by so doing he could master their hard speech, ..
