About this Item

Print on Demand. This book examines the life, work, and legacy of prominent missionary Emily Parlow, who committed herself to serving communities in China during a key period of change in the region� s history. Using primary sources such as writings and personal letters from Parlow and her family members, the author eloquently conveys the spirit of internationalism that characterized Parlow� s dedication to her work. Through personal accounts, the narrative follows the complexities of intercultural connection and the challenges encountered by a woman pursuing a life of service and faith in the early 20th century. Through Parlow's story, the book offers readers a lens through which to understand both the opportunities and challenges of global engagement. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.

About this title

Synopsis

A warm, humorous glimpse of a country matron, a birthday, and a town full of kin. In Winifred Arnold’s Miss Emeline's Kith and Kin, a stubborn, exacting elder named Miss Emeline faces sixty with teeth-gnashing practicality and a surprising willingness to forgive. The day unfolds in a small yard and garden full of memory, where family ties are tested, teased, and finally celebrated with a joyful, old‑fashioned gathering.

This novel turns on quiet moments that reveal big truths: how a community supports one another, how pride and pridefulness collide, and how even the sternest faces can soften when kindness arrives. Expect humor, gentle drama, and a portrait of intergenerational love that feels both earned and earned‑again.

Quaint, character‑driven scenes anchored by Miss Emeline’s strong will and dry wit

A close‑knit group of neighbors and relatives who feel like real flesh‑and‑blood complex characters

A themes of forgiveness, belonging, and the long reach of family ties

A cozy, uplifting tone that favors heart over hype

Ideal for readers who enjoy warm, slice‑of‑life tales about families, friendships, and small‑town life at its most generous.
