Need TOC info for Hero Tales Series


Recommended Posts

Folks,

 

I am looking for a better way to supplement our Character Building curriculum (which...basically is whatever I can find on the internet, lol).  I came across Hero Tales mentioned in a different thread and liked the first book I saw.  Came across a TOC for it and it looks great.  But it doesn't have all of the character traits I'm looking for.  

 

So I found out there's actually four volumes in the series.  But I cannot find TOC or traits listings for the last three books.  They are hard to find, and it appears they may even be out of print.

 

Does anybody have them and if so, would you mind listing for me the specific traits covered in each volume?  I would so much appreciate it!

I've been looking at the Hero Tales too -- as Missionary biographies. Because I generally love Dave and Neta Jackson's work.  They also have a series of books about missionaries called the Trailblazer series. We have one of the books (Either Vol 1 or 2. I need to check)

 

What I've been able to gather

Volume 1:

Gladys Aylward

William & Catherine Booth

AMy Carmichael

Adoniram & Ann Judson

David Livingstone

Martin Luther

Dwight Moody

Samuel Morris

George Muller

Menno Simons

Mary Slessor

Hudson Taylor

Harriet Tubman

William Tyndale

John Wesley

 

Volume 2:

Dietrich Bonhoeffer: He Dared to Stand Up to Hitler
John Bunyan: The Pilgrim Who Made Progress
Peter Cartwright: The Two-Fisted Preacher
Jim Elliot: A Modern Martyr for Stone-Age Indians
Elizabeth Fry: Angel of Prisons
Festo Kivengere: Africa's Apostle of Love
Eric Liddell: Olympic Champion and Missionary to China
Watchman Nee: Leader of the Chinese House Church Movement
John Newton: The Slave Trader Who Found Grace
Florence Nightingale: A Nurse at Heart
John Perkins: A Man Hate Couldn't Stop
Amanda Smith: American Evangelist to the World
Corrie ten Boom: The Watchmaker's Daughter
Cameron Townsend: Founder of Wycliff Bible Translators
David Zeisberger: Missionary and Friend to Native Americans

 

Volume 3:

Billy Graham

Luis Palau

Mother Theresa

Thanks for sharing those!  I've been able to find the specific heroes for each book, but I can't find the actual character traits they explore for each hero.  The TOC for the first book lists the hero and the traits for each one (I think there's three traits for each hero).  But I can't find a TOC for any of the other books in the series.
