"Our Second Decade in China, 1915-1925: Sketches and Reminiscences" provides a profound firsthand account of the evangelical and humanitarian work conducted by the Augustana Synod during a pivotal era in Chinese history. This collection of narratives documents the experiences of missionaries stationed in the Honan province, offering a detailed perspective on the challenges and triumphs of establishing religious, educational, and medical institutions in a rapidly changing social landscape.

Through personal sketches and historical reflections, the work captures the daily lives of those involved in the mission field, chronicling the expansion of the Lutheran faith alongside the turbulent political shifts of early 20th-century China. The text serves as an essential primary source for understanding the development of international missions and the intercultural encounters that defined this period. Readers will find insightful descriptions of local customs, the growth of indigenous leadership, and the persistent efforts to provide aid and spiritual guidance. This volume remains a significant historical record of the dedication and legacy of the Augustana Synod's second decade of service in the Far East.
