Synopsis
John Ruddock's vivid and animated words transport you from wiring the first lights in turn-of-the-century Ireland to 52 years trailblazing for a more powerful light through Central America.
It's a physical adventure of outrageous characters, banana trains, Carib Indians, dictators, coups, volcanoes, malaria, dugout canoes, monkeys, macaws and machetes.
A spiritual validation for the reality of God, His living Word, the life-redeeming gift of His Son and proof that faith changes lives.
And a story of diligent love between a man and his Savior.
This book includes 24 pages of photographs.

We pass more alligator hunting camps. At one point the river was so low we had to get out and push the boat pan. Two men from the US are there just now suffering hardships to find the "lost city." Up that river I know there is not only one lost city but many lost souls.
One man there of the Carib tribe told me that he is a Christian. He asked me if I was Moravian, a Baptist, a Methodist, or an Adventist. Upon my saying I was not, he said, "Then what are you?" "I am what the Bible says I am," I replied."
