Java and Its Challenge

Originally published in 1910. INTRODUCTION: Java is a fascinatingly beautiful land which is just emerging from obscurity in the thinking and planning of American tourists. But more than that, and better, Java has recently been entered as a mission field by an American Society through the efforts of a band of earnest young Christians in and about Pittsburg, Pennsylvania. "Java and its Challenge" is a brief attempt to bring this before the young life of Western Pennsylvania. But it will not stop there. The lure of the East and the high romance of this extraordinary undertaking, so painstakingly narrated by Miss Elizabeth Brookes, will receive the wider reading it deserves...... Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900's and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
