"The momentous ministry of the Edwardsean evangelist Asahel Nettleton, a key figure in the Second Great Awakening, has been effectively forgotten during the past century and a half of less-than-Reformed revivalism. Dr. Johnston's masterful and thorough biography is a long-overdue tribute to this outstanding servant of God, and is priority reading for all who care about evangelism today. J.I. PACKER All Christians who long for revival and relish the study of it should feel greatly indebted to Dr. Johnston for his painstaking labor of love in amassing the most thorough biography ever written on Asahel Nettleton, whose ministry God greatly owned during the Second Great Awakening. This book's sections on revivals and Nettleton's personal letters are themselves more than worth its price. Oh, that the Spirit of God would stir us up in prayer for revival and would again thrust forth into the white, ready harvest men of such preachers who burn with passion for the salvation of the hell-bound! JOEL R. BEEKE President of Puritan Reformed Theological Seminary, Grand Rapids, Michigan Dr. Johnston has produced a biography in which he embeds large elements of primary sources and pertinent secondary sources immediately within the text. This give a haunting ""You Were There"" atmosphere to the text and heightens the importance of the theological underpinnings to revival that made Asahel Nettleton one of the bright gifts to the American church. DR. THOMAS J. NETTLES Professor of Historical Theology, Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, Louisville, Kentucky"
