About This Item
Workington: Privately Published, 2022. 1st Edition 1st Printing. Soft cover. New. The stories of a selection of Christian missionaries who went from many parts of Cumbria to many parts of the world from churches with roots in the Christian Brethren movement. Elizabeth Wilson who went from Kendal to China in 1876, John Rothery from Whitehaven to Trinidad in 1933 and Joyce Shackley fxrom Workington to North Borneo (and later Korea) in 1961 are just three examples. Some are almost forgotten now; others are better known, such as Dame Edith Brown, born in Whitehaven, who was honoured by King George V for her work in revolutionising medical training for women in north India. They were involved in many kinds of work including medicine, education, literacy, poverty reduction, disaster relief and more alongside their evangelistic outreach. 8" x 5". 122 pages
