About the work

The LibriVox catalogue summary, preserved with the recording, reads:

LibriVox recording of Journal of Francis Asbury, Volume I by Francis Asbury. Read in English by volunteer readers. As one of the first two bishops of the Methodist church in America and one of the most well-known circuit riders during the spread of Methodism, Francis Asbury kept a journal of his travels and activities. His journal begins with his prayerful decision to come to America in 1771 and continues to December of 1815, a few months before his death. In the meantime, we travel with Rev. Asbury across the ocean, over mountains, through rivers, and up and down the whole length of the fledgling United States of America. - Summary by Devorah Allen
