Newly reprinted by Angelus Press, Volume Three combines four of these stories into a single volume.
Three Indian Tales
“Namameha and Watomilka”: A French settler’s daughter is snatched by marauding Indians and reared among them, all the while keeping the
Catholic faith in her heart…and in her son’s.
“Tahko, the Young Indian Missionary”: The Alaskan Purchase causes an Eskimo cabin boy to journey into the Alaskan wilderness in search of his
parents, with the hope of sharing the true religion with his fellow tribesmen.
“Father René’s Last Journey”: It was winter and a mantle of snow enveloped the land...but when two sick calls come, nothing could deter the zealous
missionary from rushing to the aid of his people when they were at the point of death.
The Yang Brothers
The four sons of the old fisherman Yang find themselves on opposite sides when the eldest joins with the “Large Knife” Society to drive
out the Christians and other foreigners active in late 19th-century China and the next son, after a decade in a missionary school, aspires to the
priesthood. The uprising begins and the Christians around Lake Talo must mount a defense against the warring Boxers under the leadership
of the Yang Brothers.
Children of Mary
Toward the end of the 1800’s, the Abkasians, a people dwelling in the Caucasus Mountains, between the Black Sea and the Caspian, had been
struggling to maintain their liberty against Russian supremacy. The clan of Urban-ok still clings to some vestiges of Christianity
acquired from missionaries long ago and venerates Mary, the Mother of God. But now Providence, in the person of a young Polish soldier on the run
from the Russians, gives the children Mara and Marjub a way back to the faith and to a better life.
