About the author

Born in 1862 and later living until 1952, S. O. Susag is known for Personal Experiences of S. O. Susag, a religious autobiography preserved by Project Gutenberg and The Online Books Page. In that memoir, he looks back on his childhood in Norway, his move to America, and his years of ministry.

His book presents him as a pioneer evangelist and pastor whose life was shaped by prayer, healing testimonies, and practical religious work. The tone is direct and heartfelt, making it useful not only as a faith memoir but also as a small window into immigrant and church life of his era.

Confirmed biographical details available online are limited, so much of what can be said with confidence comes from the book itself and its catalog records. What stands out most is the personal voice: earnest, unadorned, and deeply committed to sharing the spiritual experiences that defined his life.
