“His warfare is accomplished, his course is finished, he kept the faith.”
Though very short, this book summarizes William Wilberforce’s life — his upbringing, salvation, political career, and most importantly his fight for abolishing of slavery. I loved the little details about his life and the devotion to his Lord. He was willing to die to himself so that God could use him.
At but 115 pages, this biography is a surprisingly compact and enjoyable read. Wilberforce, of course, is undoubtedly one of the few truly great men whose path in life changed the whole planet for the good. This is brought out in this tightly written effort.
