A master storyteller's account of how a few men of vision created one of the most exciting missionary organizations of modern times - the Columbans, who have been part of the modern history of China and Southeast Asia. From the author of "The Left Hand of God" and "Lillies of the Field", both of which were made into films. Fr. Edward "Ned" Galvin was born in Ireland in 1882, the oldest in a family of seven children. After he was ordained to the Catholic priesthood, he realized that there were more priests in his native land than parishes. So Ned Galvin immigrated to the United States and turned a struggling church in Brooklyn into a thriving parish. But Father Galvin had a secret desire to do missionary work. He was especially attracted to China and had read all the books on the subject his local library could provide. Finally, his wish was granted, and he set out with a group of dedicated helpers on a mission to the Far East. William E. Barrett created this colorful, dramatic portrait of an unusual man whose strong Catholic faith helped him survive the horrors and heartbreak of his demanding mission to China.
