Summary "Twenty Years on Horseback; or, Itinerating in West Virginia" by W. M. Weekley is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The book narrates the experiences and challenges faced by itinerant preachers in the rugged landscapes of West Virginia during the late 19th century. Through a series of incidents drawn from his two-decade ministry, Weekley aims to provide insights into the life and labors of a minister dedicated to spreading the Christian faith in challenging contexts. At the start of the book, the author introduces himself and outlines his intentions to recount his experiences as a bishop within the United Brethren Church. The opening chapters highlight the humble yet vigorous efforts of itinerant preachers, emphasizing their resilience amidst adversity and commitment to their divine calling. He shares personal anecdotes that depict the simplicity of rural life and the deep-rooted faith of the communities he served. Weekley reflects on his early days, detailing his struggles with self-doubt, the hardships of travel, and the transformative power of the ministry, setting the stage for a rich narrative that weaves together personal growth and the broader history of the Church in West Virginia.
