Synopsis

Dive into the untamed spirit of America's frontier through the vibrant pages of "The Autobiography of Peter Cartwright: The Backwoods Preacher". Follow the extraordinary journey of a man who transformed the wild landscapes of Kentucky and Illinois into fertile grounds for faith. Cartwright, known as the "Lord's Plowman," was more than a preacher; he was a force of nature, riding through storms, swamps, and societal upheaval to spread the Methodist message.

This book is not just a memoir but a vivid chronicle of a time when religion was as wild and untamed as the land itself. From his epic confrontations with future presidents to his relentless battle against slavery, Cartwright's life reads like an adventure novel filled with humor, hardship, and holy zeal. Experience the fervor of camp meetings, the intensity of revival, and the raw, unfiltered life of early America through the eyes of one of its most charismatic evangelists.

Illustrated and annotated by Jake Clifty, this edition brings you closer to the heart of the Second Great Awakening, offering insights into the soul of a man who lived to awaken others. Whether you're a history buff, a lover of religious narratives, or simply in search of an authentic tale of human spirit and divine calling, Cartwright's autobiography promises to be a revelation.
