Web Reviews of Banner Books 2010 No. 7
‘you don’t have to be a member of the Miller family for this autobiography to fascinate, astonish and inspire . . . There is no sense of self-aggrandizement or self-justification . . . Miller honestly chronicles set-backs and disappointments as well as the successes of his ministerial career and is careful to give God all the glory. The work is full of human interest, from the simple joys of Christian family life to facing earthquakes and hurricanes on the New Hebrides.’ [Guy Davies on J Graham Miller’s autobiography A Day’s March Nearer Home at his ‘Exiled Preacher’ blog]
