Fresh from the printer, this 320 page paperback, The Worldwide Legacy of Frank Buchman, is published today, Wednesday 4 June, his birthday.
It opens with Archie Mackenzie's answer to the young man who asked him, 'Why is Frank Buchman important?' - followed by 19 chapters that have been contributed by 33 committed carriers of his legacy.
Compiled by David Young and Archie Mackenzie, it contains the text that was put on the IofC website on 1 January, now produced in response to many requests for a compact printed version.
Additions and revisions have been incorporated, and it gives a broad picture of how Buchman's message and meaning has been borne forward across the world - a valuable resource.
