Product Description
'European planter shot dead near his home on a rubber estate.'
The traumatic news continued, 'The country is coming under increasing pressure from Communist guerrillas. They creep out of their hiding-places in the jungle to de-rail trains, burn buses, overturn lorries, and disrupt life, causing widespread suffering and bloodshed. Rubber trees are slashed with knives and precious latex lost, striking a severe blow at the economy of the country.' This was Malaya in 1948.
As Communists gained control of China, OMF was forced to leave the work Hudson Taylor had started and take on new challenges, Malaya being one. As communist powers encroached on that nation to, the situation became increasingly unstable. Elizabeth Goldsmith writes an inspiring account of God's work through a seemingly impossible situation.
