Description

This is the inspiring true story of Elizabeth Wallbridge, a young woman who was born, lived and died in the village of Arreton, nearby the Parish of Brading on the Isle of Wight, England. Her family were of the poor hard-working class. Elizabeth lived an unremarkable life of a mostly worldly character. Though never immoral, she was by her own admission, a willful, proud, selfish and irreligious person. Her heart, however, was dramatically transformed by a sermon she heard at the age of 26 years old and as a result of God's saving grace she became a very devout Christian lady. Gifted with exceptional intellect and memory, and because God would set her aside through frail health, she devoted her time and strength to mastering Christian classics and to the study of the Bible, becoming remarkably proficient. After a prolonged illness, she went to meet her Savior at only 31 years of age. During her illness, Reverend Legh Richmond, the Curate of Brading, and a religious writer of the period visited her often and the discussions they shared compelled him to write this now famous book.
