In 1888, Lilias Trotter, daughter of a distinguished Victorian family, left her comfortable upper-class lifestyle in London to venture into the Arab world of Algeria and Northern Africa, where she spent the rest of her life living out the life and light and love of Jesus Christ to those around her. Lilias viewed the world with 'heartsight as deep as eyesight,' and her artistic talent took both visual and verbal form as she documented in words and sketches the seasons of her forty years in Algeria.
