Summoned from the Margin by Lamin Sanneh

A memoir by one of the 20th century's most important religious scholars, tracing a journey from a Muslim royal lineage in The Gambia to conversion, exile, and a life spent bridging worlds. Born into Gambian royal Muslim lineage, Sanneh converted to Christianity as a teenager — a move that upended his family and community ties — and this memoir traces the long journey from that rupture to his eventual position as one of the world's most distinguished scholars of Christianity and Islam in Africa. Eerdmans published it as both a spiritual autobiography and an intellectual history, and it reveals the personal stakes behind the scholarly detachment of his earlier academic work, grounding his life's questions about faith, culture, and belonging in lived experience.
