The Million-Mile Journal of a Home School Family

They journeyed across North America as a family--Arnold and Mrs. Pent and their eight children. Their goal was to share the Gospel and share their passion for God's Word to all those who would hear them. Piling in their old Packard and Pierce Arrow "horseless carriages" along with guitar and banjo, they rambled through town and city singing the songs of the faith and reciting large passages from Old and New Testaments to groups both large and small. Theirs was a family mission. They served Christ together. With great fervor and conviction, they shared their lives and hearts with the world.

I read this a long time ago, in hopes of finding something like “Cheaper by the Dozen” or “The Story of the Trapp Family Singers”; it's a good book, but didn't capture my heart quite like the above two did. It was interesting to read about the family's life; mainly it is valuable as a glimpse into another era through the eyes of a traveling Christian family.
