The Life of W. W. Everts is a biographical account of the American missionary William Wallace Everts, written by the man himself. The book was published in 1891, and it chronicles Everts' life from his childhood in New York state to his work as a missionary in China and Japan.Everts was born in 1836 and grew up in a devout Christian family. He attended college in Ohio before deciding to become a missionary. He spent several years working in China, where he helped establish schools and churches, and then moved on to Japan, where he continued his missionary work.The book provides a detailed account of Everts' experiences as a missionary, including his struggles to learn the Chinese and Japanese languages, his interactions with local people, and his efforts to spread Christianity in a foreign land. Everts also writes about his personal life, including his marriage to a fellow missionary and the birth of their children.Throughout the book, Everts emphasizes the importance of his faith and his belief in the power of Christianity to transform lives. He also reflects on the challenges and rewards of missionary work, and offers insights into the cultures and customs of China and Japan in the 19th century.Overall, The Life of W. W.
