MARTIN LUTHER:
THE MAN WHO
REDISCOVERED GOD
AND CHANGED THE WORLD AMAZING GRACE:
WILLIAM WILBERFORCE
AND THE HEROIC CAMPAIGN
TO END SLAVERY
Eric Metaxas Eric Metaxas
A brilliant biography of the most
influential person in modern history.
Written in riveting prose and
impeccably researched, this is the
searing tale of a humble man who,
by bringing ugly truths to the highest
seats of power, caused an explosion
whose sound still rings in our ears. This vivid biography tells afresh
the life story of William Wilberforce
(1759-1833), the statesman whose
profound Christian convictions
compelled him to campaign against
the slave trade in Georgian Britain – a
two decade struggle that led to the
abolition of slavery in British territory.

Eric Metaxas
2011 ECPA Book of the Year Award for Non-Fiction.
From the New York Times bestselling author of Amazing
Grace, a groundbreaking biography of Dietrich Bonhoeffer,
one of the greatest heroes of the 20th century, the man
who stood up to Hitler. A definitive, deeply moving narrative,
Bonhoeffer is a story of moral courage in the face of the
monstrous evil that was Nazism.
After discovering the fire of true faith in a Harlem church,
Bonhoeffer returned to Germany and became one of the
first to speak out against Hitler. As a double-agent, he
joined the plot to assassinate the Fuhrer, and was hanged
in Flossenberg concentration camp at age 39. Since his
death, Bonhoeffer’s story has grown to be one of the most
fascinating and complex of the 20th century.
