An Extract Of The Life Of David Brainerd (1815) - David Brainerd

""An Extract of the Life of David Brainerd"" is a memoir written by David Brainerd himself and published posthumously in 1815. It details the life and ministry of Brainerd, a Christian missionary to Native Americans in the mid-18th century. The book is divided into two parts, the first of which covers Brainerd's early life, conversion, and call to ministry. The second part focuses on his missionary work, including his struggles with illness, opposition from both Native Americans and white settlers, and his eventual death at the age of 29. Brainerd's diary entries, which make up the bulk of the book, provide a vivid and personal account of his experiences and emotions, as well as his deep commitment to spreading the Gospel. The book is considered a classic of Christian literature and has been influential in inspiring generations of missionaries and believers.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
