A fascinating, colorful, and historically significant portrait of slave-trader-turned-Christ-follower John Newton. Unabridged on 12 CDs (13 hours 33 minutes).

Most Christians know John Newton as a man who once captained a slave ship, was dramatically converted to Christ on the high seas, and later penned one of the greatest hymns of the faith, "Amazing Grace." But he also had a huge impact on his times as an icon of the evangelical movement, as a great preacher and theologian, and as a seminal influence on abolitionist William Wilberforce--a friendship portrayed in the recent major motion picture Amazing Grace. Jonathan Aitken's June 2007 biography, John Newton, explores all these facets of Newton's life and character. This biography draws on unpublished diaries and correspondence unavailable to earlier biographers, providing fresh insight into the life of this complex and memorable Christian. Now the unabridged audio version of this fascinating, colorful, and historically significant portrait of John Newton is available, brought to life by the author's narrative.
