Hepburn of Japan, and His Wife, and Helpmates: A Life Story of Toil for Christ is a book written by William Elliot Griffis in 1913. The book is a biography of Dr. James Curtis Hepburn, an American physician and missionary who dedicated his life to serving the people of Japan. The book follows Hepburn's journey from his childhood in upstate New York to his arrival in Japan in 1859, where he spent over 40 years working as a missionary and physician.The book also highlights the role of Hepburn's wife, Susan, who supported him in his work and helped him to establish a hospital and a school for girls in Japan. Additionally, the book features stories of other missionaries and Japanese Christians who worked alongside Hepburn to spread the gospel and improve the lives of the Japanese people.Throughout the book, Griffis portrays Hepburn as a man of great faith and determination, who faced many challenges and obstacles in his work but remained committed to his mission. The book also sheds light on the cultural and political context of Japan during this time period, including the Meiji Restoration and the opening of Japan to the West.Overall, Hepburn of Japan, and His Wife, and Helpmates is a compelling and inspiring story of one man's dedication to serving others and spreading the message of Christ in a foreign land.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
