- Synopsis
- Angel at Her Shoulder is more than the title of an amazing story and the biography of a most remarkable, physically undersized but spiritually large woman. Lillian Dickson, the irresistible "Lil" of this book, who has been accurately named: "Typhoon Lil," has practiced and demonstrated the faith "once delivered" as no other mortal I have ever known. In these chapters we find her building hospitals, orphanages, schools, a leprosarium, churches, and mountain clinics with a courage that at times plunged ahead against what seemed to be, even to her most devoted associates, insuperable odds. This accurate and eloquently-written story tells the amazing record of this small woman, who was pyramid-high in love with the helpless and hapless. The author has been captured by his subject and Mrs. Dickson by Taiwan, South America, Mainland China, and the world could not have been more fortunate in her biographer.
