James Gilmour and His Boys is a biographical account of the life and work of James Gilmour, a Scottish missionary who spent over 20 years in China during the late 19th century. Written by Richard Lovett and published in 1894, the book details Gilmour's journey from his early days as a student in Scotland to his eventual arrival in China, where he established a mission in the remote region of Mongolia.The book focuses on Gilmour's interactions with the local people, particularly the young boys who became his students and companions. Through his dedication and kindness, Gilmour was able to win the trust and respect of the Mongolian people, and his work had a profound impact on the region.The book also provides a fascinating glimpse into the social and political context of China during this period, as well as the challenges faced by missionaries attempting to spread Christianity in a foreign land. Overall, James Gilmour and His Boys is a moving and inspiring account of one man's dedication to his faith and his mission to help others.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
