The reader's journey through the basin of the southeastern Mediterranean, accompanied by American Protestant missionaries and their publications, which aimed to seek and achieve the "American dream" in this geographical part of the globe, will not leave him unaffected. The American missionaries, visionaries and ideologists, restless and competitive, quickly realized that their preaching should spread to the reading audience through books and religious leaflets.

Tender childhood, spontaneity and enthusiasm of youth, sensitivity and tenderness of the female soul, were the central points of their publishing efforts. However, their missionary ambitions remained unfulfilled and trapped in the prejudices and biases of the local communities. Their zeal and enthusiasm for the "renewal of religious culture" of the Orthodox communities of the southeastern Mediterranean ended up being a fantasy that could only be realized in the realm of the unrealized. This book takes the reader on a journey through this fantasy that the American priests experienced in our country and which they ultimately lived as a utopia.
