THE PERSONAL LIFE OF DAVID LIVINGSTONE.....560 PAGES IN PRINT! A GREAT READ ON THE LIFE OF ONE OF CHRISTIANITY'S OUTSTANDING MISSIONARIES.By far the best biography on Livingstone is W. Garden Blaikie’s book entitled The Personal Life of David Livingstone. One of the features which makes Blaikie’s biography invaluable is the extensive quotations drawn from Livingstone’s journal entries and correspondence. He weaves Livingstone’s own thoughts in with the narrative so skillfully that one finds himself drawn up in the story and transported back to the caravan traveling with Livingstone through Africa. David Livingstone was born to Christian parents living in the small Scottish village of Blantyre in 1813. Raised by good Christian parents, David demonstrated his aptitude as a student early on in life. He was awarded a New Testament at the age of nine for memorizing the entire 119 Psalm. At the age of twelve, he became concerned about his state as a sinner but it was not until he was in his early twenties that he made his salvation sure. During these years that he became committed to be a foreign missionary.Looking for another good book?
