Tracing the life of Ann from childhood through her untimely death, the history highlights the scholarship and work of the woman herself as pioneering missionary, Bible translator, and ministry partner of her more famous spouse. Walk the spiritual road paved by a master storyteller and discover how the Holy Spirit worked through the life of this eighteenth-century woman of God.
