The book chronicled the author’s experiences and observations over a span of twenty years in Sarawak, Borneo, focusing on the progress of missionary work and the interactions with the local communities and the challenges faced amidst political strife and cultural conflicts. The opening of the book sets the stage for McDougall's reflections on her life in Sarawak, providing context for her missionary endeavors and the gradual but complex development of the area into a Christian community. She revisits her earlier writings, aiming to share the progress and struggles of the mission while reflecting on the interplay between the missionary effort and local customs, notably the practices of the Malays and Dyaks. McDougall introduces the themes of hope, perseverance, and the difficulties faced against a backdrop of war and cultural resistance, establishing a personal and historical perspective that will resonate throughout her narrative.
