Sinopsis
Excerpt from Shepard of Aintab
There is nothing which so Stirs the blood and inspires one with the desire to live a life that Shall count for something as reading the life of a man who so lived. The new glimpses of my father's life, coming to me from one and another of those whose lives he touched, have brought new inspiration as I have woven them, together with my own memories, into the story told in this volume.

It would be impossible in a short preface to acknowledge my indebtness to all who have helped in the preparation of this book. Much of the material has been taken from the briefer sketch bearing the same title, issued by the American Board, and written by Mr. Fred B. Goodsell, one of Dr. Shepard's younger associates. Other associates who have furnished many facts and incidents are Dr. Caroline F. Hamilton, Mrs. Isabel Trowbridge Merrill, Miss Isabel Blake, and Mrs. Alice Bewer Daghlian.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book follows the extraordinary life and work of Dr. Shepard, a pioneer in healthcare who became known as the "Big Little Doctor" during his fifty-year mission in the Ottoman Empire city of Aintab. Born into a farming family in the United States, the author recounts Shepard's journey from his childhood exploits and determination to gain an education to his tireless efforts to bring medical care to a land where superstition and ignorance mingled dangerously with disease. Through gripping tales of Shepard's daring escapades, perilous travels, and miraculous surgeries performed with limited resources, the book explores the profound impact one dedicated individual can have on a community. It delves into Shepard's innovative solutions for treating patients of all backgrounds, his struggle to establish a hospital amidst political turmoil and financial constraints, and his unwavering commitment to demonstrating the power of love and compassion in a divided world.
