Biography of missionary Amy Carmichael
Author: Elisabeth Elliot
Publisher: Revell
Rating: Good read (See ratings guide)
This book is about the life of Amy Carmichael, a missionary to India around the 1890’s to 1940’s. This is a very thorough and pretty well written biography of her life. However, my complaint with most biographies stands true with this one as well. The author tends to paint her character in such glowing terms that you would think she was a perfect angel. But I noticed some bad (human) qualities in her. There’s a lot you can learn from her life IF you address the bad and comment on it.
