The Good Shepherd is a novel written by Edna Dean Baker and first published in 1921. The story revolves around the life of a young woman named Mary Ware, who is determined to become a missionary in China. Mary is passionate about her faith and feels called to serve others, but her journey is not without its challenges. As she prepares to leave for China, Mary must navigate the expectations of her family and the constraints of her gender. She is determined to prove herself and make a difference in the world, but she soon discovers that the realities of missionary work are far more complex than she had imagined. The novel explores themes of faith, sacrifice, and the clash of cultures. It depicts the struggles and triumphs of a young woman who is committed to serving others, even in the face of adversity. Through Mary's journey, the author offers a nuanced portrayal of the complexities of missionary work and the challenges of cross-cultural communication. Overall, The Good Shepherd is a thought-provoking and engaging novel that offers a glimpse into the world of missionary work and the complexities of faith and service.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
