| “We have scarcely ever read a work conceived in the same bold and
striking style, that has less objectionable manner. We are willing to hazard
our reputation for critical acumen, by affirming THAT THE WHOLE COMPASS
OF METHODIST LITERATURE DOES NOT FURNISH A VOLUME, OF THE SAME DIMENSIONS,
BETTER CALCULATED TO BE USEFUL.” - Northern Christian Advocate.
“In many respects this is a remarkable production. ... The narrative is marvellous, even to those who acknowledge the ways of God, and cannot fail to make its mark on the reader. ... We sincerely commend this work to our readers. Our brethren in the ministry will find it to possess not only POINTS OF ATTRACTION, BUT ELEMENTS OF INFLUENCE AND USEFULNESS! We are persuaded it will help them in their work.” - Dr. Lee, Ed. Richmond Christian Advocate “This book seems destined to produce some sensation in the world.” - Pittsburgh Christian Advocate “A work of extraordinary interest - the reader will hardly fail to catch the revival spirit. Its general circulation among us will be opportune. - the volume is full of interesting personal incidents. - we commend this volume to all our readers. Their hearts will burn as they read It.” - Herald and Journal. “I have read it with much interest and profit.” - G. P. Bragdon “A unique history, describing with inimitable naiveté a great revival in Great Britain. It relates many curious incidents in a very lively manner.” - New York Tribune “I thank you for the book. I read it, and found my faith so much increased, that I invited sinners to the altar the next Sabbath. Six came, and every Sabbath evening since, a few have said `pray for us.’ My experience is opposed to ***`s `doubts concerning the book - from a member of the N.E. Conference. “This is one of the most interesting books that it has been my pleasure to read for many a day. The pious and intelligent reader who once takes it up, will not wish to put it down till he has finished, or rather devoured it.” - Rev. S. W. Coggeshall. “I have placed this book in the hands of many pious and candid
persons, requesting them to read it, and either return the book or pay
me a dollar. Not one has returned it.” - An Agent. “I have perused this work with the greatest satisfaction. The Editors have done the cause of God and the church good service in offering this volume to the public. - the masses will rise from its perusal better men and women. I commend it to my brethren in the ministry especially, as a work calculated to stir us up to deeds of noble daring in our assaults on the empire of hell. During its perusal, the following lines of Wesley were the exponents of my feelings: ‘An inward baptism of pure fire, Wherewith to be baptized I have.’” - Rev. Sidney Dean “This is a deeply interesting book. It is filled with INTENSELY INTERESTING INCIDENTS, remarkable conversions, and pithy defences of revivals. Whoever dips into its pages will be allured to peruse it from title-page to finis.” - Fall River Monitor “Much may be said in favour of this deeply interesting book. It bears the unmistakable marks of being a truthful and glowing narrative of a most wonderful work of Divine Grace. The pious heart will peruse its pages with unaffected joy and thanksgiving.” -From a member of the Providence Conference The Rev, and venerable Asa Kent says of it in a letter to one of the Editors -“ I am, on the whole, very much pleased with it, and think it may be of benefit to the church, - I mean to all Christians who read attentively, with much prayer.” TO CLASS LEADERS AND OTHERS. - to any person who will send us five dollars, post paid, we will forward seven copies. On these terms, class leaders can readily supply their classes where there is no agent. Agents supplied at 33 per cent. discount. Or for $30 cash, we will send
50 copies. Communications may be directed to Rev. B. Wise, Fall River,
Mass., to Rev. R. W Allen, Warren, R. I., or to C. H. Peirce, Boston. |
