John Newton Amazing Grace

Press ganged into the navy at nineteen, flogged for desertion miles from the girl he loves, John Newton feels he has nothing to live for. Making his way into the harsh world of the eighteenth century transatlantic slave trade, he climbs up through the ranks to slave ship captain. He is a man without hope, making enemies of all he meets. Then one stormy night, with the ship going down, he faces certain death… and nothing is the same again. This is a powerfully moving story of slavery, freedom and the remarkable power live and grace to transform a life.
