Publisher's Synopsis

""Among The Indians Of The Paraguayan Chaco: A Story Of Missionary Work In South America"" is a book written by W. Barbrooke Grubb. The book is a memoir of the author's experiences as a missionary in the Paraguayan Chaco, an area of South America known for its harsh living conditions and indigenous population. Grubb tells the story of his journey to the Chaco and his efforts to establish a mission there, despite the challenges of language barriers, cultural differences, and the harsh environment. He describes his interactions with the indigenous people, including the Ayoreo and the Enlhet, and the impact that his work had on their lives. The book also provides a detailed account of the author's personal experiences, including his struggles with illness, his relationships with other missionaries, and his spiritual journey. Throughout the book, Grubb emphasizes the importance of faith and perseverance in the face of adversity, and he offers insights into the challenges and rewards of missionary work in a foreign land. Overall, ""Among The Indians Of The Paraguayan Chaco"" is a powerful and inspiring account of one man's dedication to helping others and making a difference in the world. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in missionary work, South American culture, or the human capacity for resilience and compassion.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
