From the back of the book:
The Small Woman is the true story of Gladys Aylward, the parlourmaid who overcame all obstacles to become a missionary in China.
Her deep faith and indomitable courage sustained her through twenty years of missionary work. Then the Japanese came to bomb and kill. In her finest hour she led a hundred homeless children on a twelve day march over the mountains to the Yellow River and safety.
This extraordinary account of her remarkable life has been published in many languages and filmed as The Inn of the Sixth Happiness with Ingrid Bergman.
