Publisher's Synopsis

""Gongs In The Night: Reaching The Tribes Of French Indo-China"" is a book written by Mrs. Gordon H. Smith, which tells the story of her family's missionary work in French Indo-China (present-day Vietnam, Laos, and Cambodia) during the early 20th century. The book provides a detailed account of the challenges faced by the missionaries as they sought to spread the gospel and establish churches among the various tribes in the region. The author describes the cultural and linguistic barriers that had to be overcome, as well as the dangers posed by disease, bandits, and political instability. The book also provides insight into the social and economic conditions of the region during that time period, and the impact of French colonialism on the local population. Overall, ""Gongs In The Night"" is a fascinating and inspiring account of one family's dedication to spreading the Christian message in a challenging and unfamiliar environment.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
