Never Stop Learning, a history group that discusses various topics at the Wareham Free Library each month, will discuss one of America'a favorite hymns -- "Amazing Grace" -- on Tuesday, November 13, at 1:30 p.m.

"Amazing Grace" was written by John Newton, who spent several years as captain of three slave ships, explained history buff Jerry Ciarcia, who hosts Never Stop Learning.

Years as a slaver ended when Newton felt called to the Anglican Church ministry. He wrote "Amazing Grace" when he customarily wrote a hymn each week to enforce his sermons, Ciarcia said.

All are welcome to attend the discussion. The Wareham Free Library is located at 59 Marion Road.
