''The Life, Labors, and Travels of Elder Charles Bowles, of the Free Will Baptist Denomination'' is a biographical account of the life and work of Charles Bowles, a prominent figure in the Free Will Baptist church in the mid-19th century. Written by John W. Lewis and originally published in 1852, the book chronicles Bowles? early life, his conversion to Christianity, and his eventual ordination as a minister. The book also details Bowles? extensive travels throughout the United States, where he preached and established churches in various communities. Along the way, Bowles faced numerous challenges and obstacles, including persecution and discrimination due to his race (he was African American).

It offers insights into the theological beliefs, organizational structure, and social dynamics of this religious community, as well as the broader social and political context in which it operated.Overall, ''The Life, Labors, and Travels of Elder Charles Bowles'' is a valuable historical document that provides a fascinating glimpse into the life of a remarkable individual and the world in which he lived.Together With An Essay On The Character And Condition Of The African Race By The Same.
