The Sun Do Move: The Story Of The Life Of John Jasper is a biographical book written by Isaac James. It tells the story of John Jasper, an African American slave who later became a prominent preacher in Richmond, Virginia during the mid-19th century. The book chronicles Jasper's life from his early days as a slave on a plantation to his eventual freedom and rise to fame as a preacher. James explores Jasper's religious beliefs, his struggle for freedom, and his impact on the African American community in Richmond. The title of the book is derived from one of Jasper's most famous sermons, in which he proclaimed that the sun moves around the earth, a controversial statement that garnered national attention. Overall, The Sun Do Move provides a compelling portrait of a man who overcame incredible odds to become a significant figure in American history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
