Duncan MacLeod spent fifty years living and working in Taiwan, or as he knew it, North Formosa. In this memoir, he recalls his experiences there, the people he met, and the cultural and political changes that he witnessed. As a missionary, MacLeod was uniquely positioned to observe both the strengths and the flaws of the colonial system that governed Taiwan during his time there. This book offers a rare glimpse into a fascinating period in Taiwanese history.
