Author is Patricia McGregor. "This book describes one woman's journey to and through Madagascar--a journey that took 11 long years, & still remained incomplete. But this is not the journey of a tourist, or of an academic explorer, or even of a curious missionary. This is the journey of Patricia McGregor, a simple, humble, American woman whose worldview emerges out of her relationship with God, & her plain life as a wife & mother. As she struggles to find meaning in the simple experiences of life, her journey to Madagascar & her 11-year stay & service there becomes a deep odyssey into her own restless soul, until she comes to the astonishing discovery that for a Christian the ultimate rest is found in ultimate restlessness!"
