St. Peter Claver, Apostle Of The Negro Slaves is a biography written by Anthony Astrain that tells the story of the Spanish Jesuit priest, St. Peter Claver. The book describes the life and work of St. Peter Claver, who dedicated his life to serving the African slaves who were brought to the New World. Claver was born in Spain in 1580 and became a Jesuit priest at the age of 20. He was sent to the New World and spent the rest of his life in what is now Colombia, ministering to the slaves who were brought there from Africa. Claver's work was challenging, as the slaves were often mistreated and subjected to terrible conditions. Despite this, Claver remained dedicated to his mission and worked tirelessly to provide comfort and support to the slaves. The book details Claver's many accomplishments, including his efforts to improve the conditions of the slaves and his advocacy for their rights. It also describes his deep faith and his devotion to the Catholic Church. The book provides a fascinating look at the life of a remarkable man who devoted his life to serving others and is an inspiring read for anyone interested in the history of the Catholic Church or the fight for social justice.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
