The Life of John Brainerd is a biographical account of the missionary work and personal life of John Brainerd, written by his brother Thomas Brainerd. John Brainerd was a Presbyterian minister who devoted his life to spreading Christianity among Native American tribes in colonial America during the mid-18th century. The book recounts John's early life, his religious conversion, and his decision to become a missionary. It also details his struggles and successes in establishing missions among the Delaware and Mohican tribes, as well as his interactions with other notable figures of the time, such as Jonathan Edwards and Benjamin Franklin. The book provides insights into the challenges faced by early American missionaries and the impact of their work on the Native American communities. Overall, The Life of John Brainerd is a valuable historical document that sheds light on the early history of Christianity in America and the efforts of those who sought to spread it.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
