Considered to be incomparably the best, the greatest man India ever possessed, William Careys compassion, fortitude, dedication, and perseverance knew no boundaries. For twenty-five years Carey fought against the horrible atrocities he witnessedthe evil festivals in Serampore and the hideous practice of sati, or widow-burning. He is best known for translating the New Testament into Bengali, opening the triumphant doors of Truth to perhaps the most religious country in the world.
