Jeffrey Gettleman

4.9/5 (13676 ratings)

Description:New York Times correspondent and Pulitzer Prize winner Jeffrey Gettleman’s The Mission, a chronicle of the life and death of American missionary John Chau, was picked up by Holt’s Paul Golob in a six-figure deal for North American rights. Todd Shuster and Justin Brouckaert of Aevitas Creative Management represented the author. Gettleman’s reporting detailed the story of the obsessive quest that drove Chau to a remote island in the Indian Ocean, where he hoped to convert the indigenous people to Christianity but was killed. Comparing the book to John Krakauer’s Into the Wild and David Grann’s The Lost City of Z, Golob said he was taken with the immediacy of Gettleman’s prose, which he said “jumps off the page” to reveal “how far a driven and obsessed person is willing to go in the service of their dream.” The book, which is due out in 2021, is part of Holt’s publishing partnership with the New York Times.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
