Description
June Potter Durkee is the daughter of F.M. ("Duke") Potter, a Rhodes scholar who for thirty years was a major force in Reformed Church mission policy and administration, and who served as secretary of the Board of Foreign Missions until his death in 1952. Just prior to the outbreak of World War II, ten-year-old June accompanied her parents on a tour of the Reformed Church's mission fields in the Middle East and India. Travels of an American Girl is the book she wrote of that experience at the ripe old age of twelve!
