Autorenporträt
William Carey (1761-1834) was born in Northampton, England and raised in the Church of England. He adopted Baptist views early in life eventually becoming a Baptist pastor. Sailing from England in 1793 as the first commissioned missionary by London's Baptist Missionary Society (the society he inspired and helped create), his long missions tenure in India included itinerant evangelism, church planting, social reform, Bible translation and printing, and the founding of the Serampore University, the first university in India to award degrees.
