John Peck Boeken
John Mason Peck was een abolitionist en baptistische missionaris aan de westelijke grens van de Verenigde Staten. Zijn werk richtte zich op het vestigen van kerken en onderwijsinstellingen die zich richtten op de ontwikkeling van gemeenschappen. Hij was instrumenteel in de oprichting van verschillende baptistische organisaties die religieuze en educatieve inspanningen in het Westen ondersteunden. Peck's toewijding aan het verspreiden van het christendom en onderwijs vormde het religieuze landschap van het vroege Amerikaanse Westen.

A masterpiece of clarity and compression, this book is a must have for anyone interested in the history of literature from the British Isles.
