The Sacred Flame
A Biography of Hannah More
Kevin Belmonte
18th century writer, philanthropist and reformer
Contemporary and friend of William Wilberforce
Author of William Borden biography, ‘Beacon–Light’
Hannah More was “the most successful British author of the romantic period,”—more successful, financially, than Sir Walter Scott, and more than Jane Austen. She was also a philanthropist and reformer, founded schools, educated girls, and campaigned against slavery. Yet there were moments of tragedy, and debilitating pain in her life. She knew loss and failure—and she learned the ways of grace, amid it all. Her life was illumined by the sacred flame of Christian belief.
