The Voice of Jubilee is a historical narrative that tells the story of the Baptist Mission in Jamaica from its beginnings. Written by John Clark and published in 1865, the book provides a detailed account of the mission's founders and their efforts to spread the gospel to the enslaved population of Jamaica.The book is divided into chapters that cover different periods of the mission's history, from its establishment in the early 19th century to its growth and development over the years. Throughout the book, Clark provides biographical sketches of the mission's key figures, including William Knibb, Thomas Burchell, and James Phillippo.The narrative is told in a straightforward and engaging style, with Clark drawing on primary sources such as letters, journals, and official documents to provide a rich and detailed account of the mission's work. He also includes vivid descriptions of life in Jamaica during this period, including the harsh conditions faced by the enslaved population and the challenges faced by the mission in its efforts to provide education and spiritual guidance.Overall, The Voice of Jubilee is a valuable historical document that provides insight into the history of the Baptist Mission in Jamaica and the broader history of missionary work in the Caribbean. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of Christianity in the region, as well as those interested in the history of slavery and emancipation in Jamaica.With An Introduction By David J.
