Review of Amazing Grace (2007) by Steven Rea for Philadelphia Inquirer — 28 Jul 2015

Instead, he has Wilberforce and his fellow abolitionists describe the inhumane conditions - in the precise, passionate language of legislators who believe that human decency is more important than money and power.
