A Greatheart of the South: John T. Anderson, Medical Missionary is a biographical account of the life and work of John T. Anderson, a medical missionary who dedicated his life to serving the people of the South. Written by Gordon Poteat and originally published in 1921, the book chronicles Anderson's upbringing in rural North Carolina, his education at Wake Forest College and the University of Maryland, and his decision to become a medical missionary in China. The book describes Anderson's experiences in China, where he worked tirelessly to provide medical care to the Chinese people and to spread the gospel of Christianity. Anderson's work often put him in danger, as he faced opposition from both the Chinese government and local warlords. Despite these challenges, Anderson remained committed to his mission and continued to serve the people of China for over 30 years.Throughout the book, Poteat emphasizes Anderson's deep faith and his unwavering commitment to helping those in need. The book also provides insights into the cultural and political climate of China during the early 20th century, as well as the challenges faced by medical missionaries working in a foreign country.Overall, A Greatheart of the South: John T. Anderson, Medical Missionary is a compelling and inspiring account of one man's dedication to serving others and making a difference in 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.
