Friar Among Savages: Luis Cancer is a biographical account of the life and work of a Spanish friar named Luis Cancer. The book is written by Kurt, who is also a friar and has known Cancer personally. The book tells the story of Cancer's journey from his early life in Spain to his arrival in the Philippines, where he spent most of his life working among the indigenous tribes. Cancer was a committed missionary who dedicated his life to spreading the Christian faith and improving the lives of the people he served. The book describes the challenges Cancer faced in his work, including language barriers, cultural differences, and the hostility of some of the tribes he encountered. Despite these obstacles, Cancer persevered and developed a deep understanding and appreciation of the indigenous cultures he worked with. The book also explores Cancer's personal struggles, including his battle with tuberculosis and his feelings of isolation and loneliness. Through it all, Cancer remained committed to his mission and continued to work tirelessly until his death in 1952. Friar Among Savages: Luis Cancer is a compelling and inspiring story of a man who dedicated his life to serving others and making a difference in the world. It offers a unique perspective on the history of the Philippines and the role of the Catholic Church in the region.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
