Consists of 14 moving letters of Rev. Newton to a Rev Haweis accounting his early life and conversion while a slave trader. Additional notes added by a Rev Cecil recounting his final years till 1807. He shows well why God's "Amazing Grace" is so amazing to him. Great for quotes!

I loved the story in this book, but not necessarily how it was written. I didn't like how the story jumped around, but I love reading about brave people and what they have endured. It's humbling.

John Newton's most famous hymn takes on special meaning when you know the story of his life. Amazing grace indeed!

Wonderful! This book had important life lessons. Very inspirational.
