If the author is well known he needs no such formal entrance into the literary world; if he is as yet unfamiliar to a wide circle of readers, his book itself is his best recommendation.<\/p>\n<p>Dickens used to say that it was an easy thing to &#8221; come out into society, but a difficult thing to prevent going in again.&#8221; And so a book or an author that proves unworthy of the introduction to the public, cannot long float, notwithstanding the outside supports intended to give it buoyancy. <strong>[<a href=\"https:\/\/missiology.org.uk\/pdf\/e-books\/leonard_d-l\/100-years-of-missions_leonard.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">Continue reading<\/a>]<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Although Delavan Leonard&#8217;s history of missions covers early church and medieval missions, his primary focus is in &#8220;The Great Century&#8221; following William Carey.
