In answer to Ellen White’s historic 1891 testimony her son James Edson White began evangelistic and educational work among Southern Blacks; using a missionary boat that plied the Mississippi River. Ellen White produced an ongoing series of testimonies on this subject; which Edson gathered up and published in 1898 and 1901. This reprint of that work; with the inclusion of additional material; reminds us that we are all brothers and sisters in Christ; and one in the Spirit.
