Product details

"Amazing Grace: The Life of John Newton and the Surprising Story Behind His Song" by Bruce Hindmarsh and Craig Borlase tells the story of John Newton, the former slave ship captain who became an Anglican minister and abolitionist. Newton wrote the iconic hymn "Amazing Grace" in 1772, inspired by his personal journey of redemption after a life involved in the Atlantic slave trade. The hymn's lyrics reflect his spiritual conversion and the transformative power of God's grace following a near-death experience in a violent storm at sea. Published in 1779 as part of the Olney Hymns, the song paired with the hymn tune "New Britain" in 1835 became one of the most beloved and enduring Christian hymns worldwide. The book explores Newton's complicated legacy, including his past in slave trading and his later efforts to abolish slavery, revealing the deep history and meaning behind the hymn that continues to inspire millions.
