Generation of Giants

The book Generation of Giants: The Story of the Jesuits in China in Ming Dynasty is perhaps his most notable work. In 1926, he entered the Jesuits, and in 1932 was sent to China where he worked for four years. The experience would later be reflected in the book Generation of Giants, about the inculturating efforts of early Jesuit missionaries to China like Matteo Ricci.
