Publisher's Synopsis
From The Desert is a book written by John Wesley Holloway and published in 1919. The book is a memoir of Holloway's experiences while living and working in the desert regions of the American Southwest. Holloway was a teacher and missionary who spent several years living among the Navajo and Hopi tribes in Arizona and New Mexico. His book provides a detailed account of his interactions with these communities, as well as his observations of the natural environment and the challenges of living in such a harsh and unforgiving landscape. From The Desert is a deeply personal and reflective work, in which Holloway grapples with questions of faith, identity, and purpose. He describes the beauty and majesty of the desert, but also the isolation and loneliness that can come with living in such a remote and inhospitable place. Overall, From The Desert is a fascinating and thought-provoking exploration of life on the American frontier, and a testament to the resilience and resourcefulness of those who call it home.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
