520			_a"A Story of One Short Life, 1783 to 1818" by Elisabeth G. Stryker is a biography written in the late 19th century. The book chronicles the life of Samuel J. Mills, a significant figure in the history of American foreign missions, and explores his passionate dedication to spreading the Gospel. Through Mills' story, the author aims to inspire a new generation of mission-minded individuals. In this biography, Stryker details Mills' early life, his conversion to Christianity, and his eventual commitment to missionary work, which he began at Williams College, where he was instrumental in founding the American Foreign Mission Society. The narrative unfolds through various chapters that highlight pivotal moments, including Mills’ transformative experiences with fellow missionaries and influential figures, the establishment of mission schools, and his travels across the United States and to Africa. The book also emphasizes the challenges faced by Mills and his contemporaries as they sought to evangelize and uplift those in darkness, culminating in Mills' untimely death at the age of thirty-five. Through inspired moments and the impact of his life's work, Stryker encapsulates the spirit of dedication and service that defined Mills' legacy in foreign missions.
