William Sheppard: Congo's African American Livingstone Paperback - 2002 - 1st Edition

by William E. Phipps


From the publisher

This comprehensive biography of William Sheppard, the first African American Presbyterian missionary, presents the remarkable story of how an African American born in the South during the era of slavery emerged as one of the most distinguished Presbyterian leaders in American history. The book chronicles Sheppard's journey to the Congo, details his efforts to challenge human rights violations, and describes his impact on the areas of religion, human rights, education, and art.

First line

William Henry Sheppard Jr. was born in March 1865, a month before slavery was eradicated in the United States by the Confederate surrender at Appomattox.
