""Damien of Molokai 1840-1889"" is a biographical book written by Irene Caudwell. The book tells the inspiring story of Father Damien, a Belgian priest who devoted his life to serving the lepers of Molokai, Hawaii. Father Damien arrived at the isolated colony in 1873, where he found a community of people suffering from the debilitating disease. Despite the harsh living conditions and the risk of contracting the disease himself, Father Damien worked tirelessly to provide medical care, housing, and spiritual guidance to the lepers. He also fought for their rights and advocated for their dignity and inclusion in society. The book explores Father Damien's life, from his early years as a missionary in Hawaii to his eventual death from leprosy in 1889. It highlights his unwavering dedication to his mission and his compassion for those in need. Through his story, the book offers a powerful message of hope, courage, and selflessness, inspiring readers to follow in Father Damien's footsteps and make a difference in the lives of others.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
