The book ''The Pastor of the Desert: Jean Jarousseau'' by Eugene Pelletan is a biography of a French Protestant pastor who dedicated his life to serving the people of the desert. Jean Jarousseau was born in 1796 and grew up in a Protestant family. He felt a calling to become a pastor and was ordained in 1821.Jarousseau was sent to Algeria as a missionary in 1833. He was initially stationed in Algiers but soon felt drawn to the desert regions of the country. He believed that the nomadic tribes of the desert were in need of spiritual guidance and set out to minister to them.Jarousseau spent the next 30 years of his life living among the people of the desert. He learned their language and customs and earned their trust and respect. He preached to them in their own language and provided them with medical care and other forms of assistance.The book describes Jarousseau’s many adventures in the desert, including his encounters with hostile tribes and his efforts to negotiate peace between warring factions. It also explores his personal life, including his marriage to a local woman and the challenges they faced as an interracial couple.Overall, ''The Pastor of the Desert: Jean Jarousseau'' is a fascinating account of a remarkable man who dedicated his life to serving others. It provides insight into the culture and history of Algeria and the challenges faced by missionaries in the 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
