A Corn of Wheat: The Life Story of Clara Leffingwell is a biographical book written by Helen I. Root. The book tells the story of Clara Leffingwell, a woman who dedicated her life to serving others. Clara was born in 1874 in Indiana and grew up in a family that valued education and service. She became a teacher and then a missionary, traveling to China in 1901 to work with the China Inland Mission. Clara faced many challenges in her work, including language barriers, cultural differences, and political unrest. She also experienced personal loss, including the death of her husband and two children. Despite these difficulties, Clara remained committed to her work and continued to serve others until her death in 1949. The book provides a detailed account of Clara's life, including her childhood, education, missionary work, and personal relationships. It also explores the historical context of her life, including the Boxer Rebellion and the rise of communism in China. Overall, A Corn of Wheat is a compelling and inspiring story of one woman's dedication to service and her impact on the world.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
