註釋Ernst Jakob Christoffel, founder of the Christian Mission to the Blind in the Middle East, was an authority on and friend of the Middle East virtually unrivalled by Germans in the twentieth century. He spent decades of his life in Turkey and Persia. He had friends among Christians and Muslims. He conversed with Turks, Armenians and Aberbaijanis in their own language. Two world wars threatened to destroy the work he had set up. But the "father of the blind, nobody's children, cripples and deaf-mutes" did not give up. This is his story, in words and photographs.
