Amazing Grace: John Newton, Slavery and the World?s Most Enduring Song

The definitive look at what is perhaps the most popular hymn in the English language. Turner details the life of the song’s author, John Newton. Turner’s examination of Newton’s life and how it influenced the words of “Amazing Grace” gives an added resonance to the second half of his book, which examines the central historical paradox of Newton’s specifically religious song: “although the song still holds its original meaning for millions of Christians around the world, it now has a parallel existence outside the church, where often the only link is a shared belief that it is a song about hope.”

William Wilberforce: The Life of the Great Anti-Slave Trade Campaigner

Written to coincide with the bicentenary of the abolition of the slave trade in 1807, Hague shows how Wilberforce, after his agonizing conversion to evangelical Christianity, was able to lead a powerful tide of opinion, as MP for Hull, against the slave trade, a process which was to take up to half a century to be fully realized. Hague examines twenty-three crucial years in British political life during which Wilberforce met characgers as varied as Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette, Tsar Alexander of Russia, and the one-year old future Queen Victoria, who used to play at his feet. William Hague?s masterful study of this remarkable and pivotal figure in British politics brings to life the great triumphs and shattering disappointments he experienced in his campaign against the slave trade, and shows how immense economic, social and political forces came to join together under the tireless persistence of this unique man.
