| The Scotsman, Horatius Bonar, had a passionate heart for revival and was a friend and supporter of several revivalists, He was brother to the more well-known Andrew Bonar, and with him defended D. L. Moody's evangelistic ministry in Scotland. He authored a couple of excellent revival works, one including over a hundred biographical sketches and the other an addendum to Rev. John Gillies' 'Historical Collections...' bringing it up to date. He was a powerful soul-winner and is well qualified to pen this brief, but illuminating study of the character of true revivalists. This particular work has been reprinted as a separate booklet, but it was originally written as a preface to his edition of Gillies 'Historical Collections' first published in 1754. Although the original text is in the public domain, this etext is the property of the Revival Library. We would be grateful if its use was restricted to private reading and research.
