Publisher's Synopsis

""The Story of John G. Paton Told for Young Folks: Or Thirty Years Among South Sea Cannibals"" is a book written by James Paton and published in 1892. The book is a biographical account of the life of John G. Paton, a Scottish missionary who spent thirty years living among the South Sea Cannibals in the New Hebrides (now Vanuatu) in the late 19th century. The book details Paton's journey as he travels to the South Sea Islands, his experiences with the cannibalistic tribes of the region, and his efforts to spread Christianity among them. The book also includes descriptions of Paton's personal life, including his marriage and family, as well as his struggles and triumphs as a missionary. Written specifically for young readers, the book is a fascinating and inspiring account of one man's journey to share his faith with a remote and dangerous community, and the impact he had on their lives and culture.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
