Publisher's Synopsis

2014 Reprint of 1938 Edition. Full facsimile of the original edition, not reproduced with Optical Recognition Software. Frank Charles Laubach (1884 -1970) an Evangelical Christian missionary and mystic known as "The Apostle to the Illiterates." In 1935, while working at a remote location in the Philippines, he developed the "Each One Teach One" literacy program. It has been used to teach about 60 million people to read in their own language. He was deeply concerned about poverty, injustice and illiteracy, and considered them barriers to peace in the world. This work outlines Laubach's technique for combatting world illiteracy and demonstrates his use of symbols and pictures as teaching tools.
