Adventure, history, courage, and providence combine in this fascinating true account. Originally published in 1921, this book has been reprinted to inspire a new generation of readers to greater boldness and faith. The many original photos are included.
In imperial Russia, a young protestant dares to defy the will of the state-supported majority church and risks the consequences. The consequences come-surveillance, inhumane imprisonment, the company of hardened criminals, torturous transport, and exile to northernmost Siberia.
Readers experience an insider's view of Russia in that turbulent period as the empire nears its collapse and Europe becomes embroiled in the first world war. Colorful prose reveals Jacques' life as a prisoner of conscience, his sudden decision to flee, a hasty nocturnal visit home, a harrowing escape of thousands of miles across Siberia, travel by foot through Manchuria to China, a voyage across the Pacific, and a narrow escape from further imprisonment.
Throughout his perilous journey, the heroic fugitive found frequent assurance in the promise of Psalms 50:15, "Call upon Me in the day of trouble; I will deliver you, and you shall glorify Me" (NKJV). Over and over, his heavenly Father sent the expected deliverance and in return, Jacques recounts those miraculous events to glorify his Deliverer.
