"The African Slave Boy, A Memoir Of S. Crowther" recounts the early life of Samuel Ajayi Crowther, a remarkable individual who rose from enslavement to become the first African Anglican bishop in West Africa. Kidnapped and sold into slavery as a child, Crowther experienced the horrors of the transatlantic slave trade firsthand. His memoir provides a powerful and poignant account of his capture, his journey, and his eventual liberation by the Royal Navyâ?(TM)s anti-slavery squadron.

This narrative offers a unique perspective on the history of slavery and the experiences of those who endured it. Crowtherâ?(TM)s story is one of resilience, faith, and the pursuit of knowledge. This book offers valuable insights into 19th-century Africa, the impact of the slave trade, and the life of a man who played a pivotal role in the spread of Christianity in West Africa.
