David Brainerd (1718 1747) was a colonial American missionary to
Native Americans made famous when Jonathan Edwards (1703 1758)
posthumously edited his journal and other writings into a popular
biographical narrative. Having spent time at Yale University,
Brainerd entered the ministry in 1742 and dedicated his life to
work amongst native peoples in Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, and New
Jersey before expiring at the age of 29. This 1902 edition of The
Diary and Journal of David Brainerd provided readers with a broader
picture of his life and the source material from which Edwards
composed his narrative. Volume 2 focuses mostly upon his work with
Native Americans as well as correspondence and other religious
writing. The thoughts preserved in this two-volume set are an
important resource for those interested in religion in America
during the period known as the 'Great Awakening'.
