The longing season. [large print] Christine Schaub.
As the son of a ship captain{608} it was clear John Newton s destiny was to be found at sea. But when he leaves Plymouth aboard the HMS Harwich full of promise{608} he has no idea about the strange directions his life will take. The journey would find him reduced to an outcast and a servant of slaves in Africa. Refusing to believe he had disappeared{608} Mary Catlett takes steps to locate him and waits patiently for his return. Meanwhile Newton has become a slave trader with one goal: to quickly make a fortune and find his way back to civilization. When a storm at sea brings the young captain to his knees{608} his outlook changes forever. It s an event that would inspire him to write the incredible hymn Amazing Grace.
