Item description from seller

First edition, first impression. Undated but 1938 from other bibliographic sources. Olive green illustrated cloth, no jacket as issued. Some edge wear to top and bottom of covers and spine, slight backwards lean probably caused by slight damp distortion, corners bruised, no published price, no inscriptions, internally clean and tight, overall a vg copy for its age. 144pp, illustrated. William Carleton Irvine (1871-1946), was a missionary, writer and the founding editor of the Indian Christian magazine. This is his account of working for 25 years among the lepers of India. This book was widely read and Irvine and his long suffering wife were held up as model missionaries. Quite a scarce book.
