Winifred Kellersberger Vass—Doctor Not Afraid: E.R. Kellersberger, M.D. • ISBN: 1-57736-170-9 • $22.95 • 376 pages • softcover • 6 x 9 • Imprint: PHP • Faithfully kept daily diaries record the warm and tender life story of Dr. Eugene Roland Kellersberger. His leprosy patients called him "Dr. Not Afraid" because he was not afraid to touch them. This uniquely adventurous biography defines Dr. Kellersberger's roots and details his boyhood spent in Cypress Mill amid the hazy, mesquite-framed vistas of the beautiful "Texas Hill Country." It tells of his marriage and the hazardous journey in 1916 during the grim days of World War I that took the young couple to their chosen medical missionary field in the Belgian Congo. In the mission field, he endured family illness and tragedy, all the while dedicating himself to his practice. For thirteen years, he served as president of the American Leprosy Missions and traveled the globe in his determined fight against Hansen's Disease, battling on behalf of its victims. His is a story of a pioneering spirit and of deep and abiding faith.
