Billy Bray was a Cornish miner who became a Methodist preacher in the early 19th century. His colorful sermons and charismatic personality made him one of the most popular preachers of his time. In this memoir, Frederick William Bourne collects Bray's own writings to tell the story of his life and his journey from a life of drunkenness and despair to one of joy and faith. This book is a moving testament to the transformative power of Christian spirituality.
