David Livingstone
Man of Prayer and Action
Langbeschreibung
Written just forty years after David Livingstone's death, this admiring account of the famous missionary's life and work takes us deep into the "dark continent" of nineteenth-century Africa, where he labored to bring "Christianity, commerce and civilization." A national hero in Victorian Britain, Livingstone earned fame as an explorer, scientific investigator, antislavery crusader and imperial reformer, as well as in the role of a Protestant martyr who eventually died in Africa of malaria. As a story of adventure, faith, and inspiration, it needs no embellishment, and the author elegantly allows "the story to tell itself."
Charles Silvester Horne (1865-1914) studied theology at Mansfield College, Oxford, became a well-known Congregationalist minister, and additionally served as a member of the British parliament for Ipswich, England.
