- "When I arrived home after 24 years in Africa I found that my mother had carefully hoarded all my letters sent week by week with an account of the happenings in Mozambique, day by day, especially during the ten years of the awful war for Liberation (Independence) when the three missionaries, John Paul, Irene Wheeler and myself were isolated in Msumba, in the north of Mozambique, miles from anywhere, while the war raged around us. .... This book is written from the hundreds of letters sent home during 24 years of my life as a missionary, first in Nyasaland/Malawi and then in Mozambique (the same diocese at that time)." -- From the Author.
