Coming 14th Feb 2025
This unique and eye-opening biography brings Jennie Taylor out of the shadow of her better known husband, James Hudson Taylor.
Her background, her adventurous personality, and above all her unshakeable commitment to obedience to the call of God, all combined to prepare her to be a true pioneer.
She survived two typhoons, cholera, and near death in childbirth; she led a party of women hundreds of miles further into inland China than any other western woman had gone before.
‘Once you pick up this book it is difficult to put down!’
- Ruth Broomhall, Author, and great-grandniece of Hudson Taylor.
‘One can feel the sights, smells and sounds of China.’
- Rev Dr Patrick Fung, Global Ambassador, OMF International.
