Donev is to be commended for his fine research and writing. He has apparently done a thorough investigation given the limitations of time and locations for some of the materials which he managed to utilize for this project. However, his work would benefit greatly overall from an editor to catch the numerous misspellings and non-standard English patterns of written speech. In fact, it would be hoped that not only will this volume find an editor for any potential future republishing, but also some expansion on the work already done that might better clarify the enigma that Voronaev seems to have been. This account reminds the reader of the heritage of Pentecostal itinerant preachers who were willing to carry the full gospel to the ends of the earth at great cost to their lives and the lives of their families.
