About the book
Conversations with a seasoned traveler. Full of the rich remembrances of a life well-lived, this journal of an evangelist's days is warm and funny, keen and human, upbeat and nostalgic all at once. "I didn't think the principal had actually seen me, though I knew I was guilty. I really wasn't a liar, but I hated the thought of being sent home with such a penalty. So when the principal called my name, I said, 'Professor Norton, I didn't--' It lends a personal, and sometimes surprising, perspective on both world and local history: "Historians tell us that the financial crash ... took place in 1929. So far as I am personally concerned ... it must have been somewhere around 1918 or 1919 when I was five or six years old." From This High Hill reads like a conversation with someone who has traveled the world and has worked with hundreds of people -- famous and ordinary, saintly and not so saintly. In its pages the reader comes to know a straightforward and humble man, whose observations are both simple and complex: "Sometimes you have to pay a price for great bargains." And page by page, From This High Hill affirms with quiet grace and confidence that the Lord "has been a dwelling place in all generations." - Back cover.
