Appasamy's biography of Sundar Singh, a high-caste Sikh who became
a Christian, is a classic account of his life and teaching. For
many years before his disappearance in Tibet, the Sadhu had moved
in and out of that forbidden land on his evangelistic journeys,
persecuted, imprisoned and assaulted. He became famous throughout
India, Europe and America for his saintly character, his mystical
vision and his zeal for the Christian faith. He entered the
forbidden land of Nepal, was seized, stripped and his body covered
with leeches, but he endured his torture with singing. His forty
days in the Indian forest during which he lost his sight and
speech, his long journeys on foot, his Himalayan mountain
adventures, his ceaseless witness to the Christian faith are all
related in this definitive biography by his friend Appasamy. 'His
tall, well-built figure,' says Appasamy, 'clad in orange robe with
a scarf of the same colour thrown across his shoulders, made people
think of what Jesus may have looked like when He was on this
earth.' Here is the story of a great disciple who endured hardship,
fought a good fight and then moved into the silence of Tibet.
