This well-preserved copy of “Pioneering with God, vol. II” by Augusta Oakes Guy offers a fascinating glimpse into the life and missionary work of one of the early female pioneers of Christianity in the American West. Published in 1983, this volume is part of Guy’s autobiographical account of her experiences as a Methodist missionary in the late 19th century, spreading the gospel and establishing churches in the rugged and often hostile territories of the frontier.
Guy’s vivid and deeply personal narratives provide a unique perspective on the challenges faced by women in ministry during that era, as well as invaluable insights into the cultural clashes and interactions between settlers and Native American tribes. Her writing style is both engaging and introspective, offering readers a window into the mindset and motivations of a truly pioneering spirit.
Collectors of American religious history, women’s studies, and frontier literature will appreciate this rare opportunity to own a piece of this important work. Guy’s books have become increasingly scarce over time, making this well-maintained volume a true treasure for those seeking to understand the pivotal role played by female missionaries in the spiritual and cultural development of the American West.
