Francis Asbury: Circuit Rider (Christian Heroes: Then and Now)

Francis Asbury rode roughly 270,000 miles on horseback across the American frontier so that settlers in the farthest cabins would hear the gospel.

This Christian Heroes: Then & Now biography follows the circuit rider through mud, snow, and sickness, preaching in barns and clearings and shaping American Methodism one small congregation at a time.

A true story of endurance and plain faithfulness, written for young readers and excellent for family read-aloud and homeschool history.
