The Hosts of the Lord is a historical fiction novel written by Flora Annie Steel and published in 1900. The story is set in India during the British Raj and follows the lives of three British women who have come to India to serve as missionaries. The main character, Miss Leighton, is a middle-aged woman who has dedicated her life to serving God and helping the people of India. She is joined by two younger women, Miss Leslie and Miss Clifford, who are both new to India and eager to begin their work.As the women settle into their new lives, they encounter a variety of challenges and obstacles. They must navigate cultural differences, language barriers, and the harsh realities of life in India, including poverty, disease, and violence. Along the way, they form close bonds with the local people, including a group of orphaned children who they take under their wing.As the story unfolds, the women must confront their own personal demons and struggles, including doubts about their faith and their ability to make a difference in a country that is so different from their own. They also face external challenges, including a group of hostile villagers who are suspicious of their motives and a local ruler who is determined to undermine their efforts.Despite these challenges, the women remain committed to their work and their faith, and they continue to serve the people of India with compassion and dedication. The Hosts of the Lord is a powerful and moving story of faith, courage, and the transformative power of love and compassion.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
