About This Item
Nashville, TN: B&H, 2019. 1st. h/b. Very good, 1st edition, unclipped d/j (vg), black boards, silver spine titling bright; text block firm, pages crisp, with very occasional margin marking.. 8vo (230 x 150 / 9"" x 6""). Thomas Johnson and Charles Spurgeon lived worlds apart. Johnson, an American slave, born into captivity and longing for freedom--- Spurgeon, an Englishman born into relative ease and comfort, but, longing too for a freedom of his own. Their respective journeys led to an unlikely meeting and an even more unlikely friendship, forged by fate and mutual love for the mission of Christ. Steal Away Home is a new kind of book based on historical research, which tells a previously untold story set in the 1800s of the relationship between an African-American missionary and one of the greatest preachers to ever live.
