In the 1920s, three adventurous and determined British women missionaries traveled along China¿s old Silk Road to ¿gossip the Gospel¿ in the Muslim regions of northwestern China. As this ground-breaking biography of Mildred Cable and the sisters Eva and Francesca French illustrates, their dedicated service in the Gobi Desert¿as members of the China Inland Mission (CIM)¿was only one aspect of these three unconventional women¿s lives.
