Endorsements<\/h2>\n

‘Justice has at last been done to the greatest preacher that England has ever produced.’– D. M. LLOYD-JONES<\/p>\n

‘One of the great monumental literary achievements of the 20th century. George Whitefield has come alive for me as I have been reading the book, a few pages at a time each evening.’– Dr. SHERWOOD E. WIRT<\/p>\n

‘…My heart was tremendously stirred as I read it – more than it has been for many, many years.’– Dr. OSWALD J. SMITH<\/p>\n

Book Description<\/h2>\n

The period 1741-1770, covered by this second and concluding volume, was not one of cloudless sunshine. It opened with the doctrinal conflict with the two Wesleys and with a serious division in Methodist ranks. But this was quickly followed by a visit to Scotland in which revival reached its high watermark. Then came years of unwavering effort to evangelize the people of the English-speaking world and to consolidate the gains. Multitudes of ‘the humble poor’ believed, and members of the aristocracy heard the message of grace.<\/p>\n

An outstanding biography, popularly written, and with an urgent message for the present day.<\/p>\n
