Comments and Reviews
| mickey rat 30th May 2019 | John Newton is best known as the composer of "Amazing Grace" but before he became an abolitionist clergyman he had a very different career as the captain of a slaving ship. I can remember reading the harrowing but matter-of-fact log of one of his ships with daily accounts of how slaves were purchased in West Africa, the nightmare of the Middle Passage and eventual sale of the survivors, when I was a teenager and not connecting him to that wonderful song until many years later. This book includes his memoir and illuminating letters. | |
