Two books in one!Newton the Liberator: The life of John Newton must be one of the most amazing stories of the eighteenth century. By his early twenties he was a hard-bitten slave trader living a life of debauchery. But in a violent Atlantic storm he had a profound experience which led to his becoming a preacher and the writer of many hymns, most famous of all being "Amazing Grace".Wesley the Preacher: John Wesley was a remarkable man by any standards. He travelled over a quarter of a million miles of difficult terrain on horseback, preached 42,000 sermons, and trained 192 itinerant evangelists. These handpicked and carefully mentored preachers joined him in making tens of thousands of disciples. A decade after his death there were 825 Wesleyan Methodist chapels that boasted 90,000 members. This popular biography provides a vivid picture of the spiritual journey of a man who had an extraordinary impact on eighteenth-century Britain and whose influence is still felt today.
