We read this as part of my daughter's homeschooling and it was fascinating learning about another early missionary and the cultures that she dove into trying to share Jesus and His love with them. I got to share with my daughter the Japanese and Indian native dress that Amy decided to embrace as a missionary. I loved how she did her best to be a part of the culture while still being set apart. It was a challenge for her, especially when dealing with the Indian caste system, which was mind boggling. I really enjoy this book series and the history it is teaching that I never knew about.
