Synopsis
Excerpt from The Black Bishop: Samuel Adjai Crowther
I heard of his death one Sunday morning while I was in Rome, in January, 1892. I was to address Signor Capellini's band of earnest Christian Italian soldiers that evening. I put aside the subject I had chosen and told them the story of Samuel Crowther.
Never, surely, had an audience been more surprised and interested.

The Black Bishop: Samuel Adjai Crowther (Classic Reprint)
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book charts the remarkable life of Samuel Adjai Crowther, born into slavery and sold multiple times before being rescued as a child and taken to Sierra Leone. Crowther's exceptional talents were recognised, and he became a prominent figure in the Church Missionary Society, returning to Africa as a minister and later becoming the first African Bishop of the Niger. His work there established Christianity in the region and educated and inspired generations of Nigerians. The book also depicts the historical backdrop of slavery and the anti-slavery movement in the 19th century, setting Crowther's story within the context of a broader struggle for freedom and human rights. Ultimately, Crowther's legacy lies in his unwavering faith, his groundbreaking work in the Christian Church, and his pioneering role in the fight against the slave trade. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781331499480_0
