''John Black, The Apostle Of The Red River'' is a historical book written by George Bryce and first published in 1898. The book tells the story of John Black, a Scottish Presbyterian missionary who arrived in the Red River settlement (now Manitoba) in 1851. Black is depicted as a brave and determined man who worked tirelessly to spread Christianity and establish churches throughout the region.The book covers many aspects of Black’s life, including his early years in Scotland, his journey to Canada, and his experiences in the Red River settlement. It also explores the challenges that Black faced as a missionary, including language barriers, cultural differences, and conflicts with other religious groups.One of the major themes of the book is the role of religion in the settlement of the Canadian West. Bryce argues that Black and other missionaries played a crucial role in bringing civilization and order to the region, and that their efforts helped to lay the foundation for the development of Manitoba and the rest of Western Canada.Overall, ''John Black, The Apostle Of The Red River'' is a fascinating and informative account of one man’s remarkable life and legacy. It offers valuable insights into the history of Western Canada and the role of religion in shaping the region’s culture and identity.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
