First Edition
 
The human stories of men whom God has called to fulfil a special mission will always have an appeal to searchers after a purpose in life. There have been many biographical sketches of the characters chosen by Oswald Sanders for this book, and these biographies have caught the atmosphere of the care examination which provides helpful insight into the principles underlying effective Christian service.
The experiences of the men portrayed are discerned as a reflection of our own. Their hard-won victories through faith and their defeats through unbelief are at our disposal without price. This approach is the product of seeing men and seeing their needs in a wide mixing with many cultures and nationalities.
