This rare 1931 first edition of "Sam Pollard: A Hero of China" by Walter Pollard (his son) is a significant piece of literary and missionary history. The book chronicles the inspiring life of Sam Pollard, a missionary and educator in China, providing a compelling glimpse into early 20th-century missionary work and Chinese cultural history.

The hardcover features a beautifully designed cover that reflects its historical importance, accompanied by rich illustrations inside. A meaningful addition for collectors of historical, religious, or literary works.

C O N D I T I O N This book is in good vintage condition with the following notes: Some foxing on certain pages. A 1932 gift award certificate inside the front cover. A few minor tears at the corners of some pages. Three illustrations include child-drawn coloring marks in pen.

These imperfections are consistent with its age and are reflected in the price. Please refer to the photos for further details.
