a recommended read Aug 27, 2000
By Tom (scotgar @ hotmail.com) Mr Waugh has done his research well, and offers a fascinating little study of revival history throughout the centuries and across continents. Unlike many such studies though, this author concentrates not on those great 18th and 19th Century awakenings, but on revivals of the 20th Century. Some of these are not well known at all, so his information is most appreciated, eg Solomon Island in the 1970's, amongst Australian Aboriginees in the 1980's, etc. He does spend an awful lot of time focusing on 'renewal' in the 1990's (eg Toronto), which many, including myself, would not include in the category of true historical revival. Apart from this, this is a most worthwhile read indeed.

Excellent Survey Jun 24, 2009
By Philip Waugh This book gives the story of well known and also lesser known revivals of the Holy Spirit. At first I was expecting a critical analysis of strengths and weaknesses, or discussion of what controversies arose. Yet the strength of this book is that it welcomes the many forms of revival and the always new ways in which God decides to act. In the end you are left with a feeling that God is constantly doing new and otherwise impossible things, and a feeling that more is around the corner. Informative and encouraging. A subject that we should be examining with greater priority.

Handbook for revival history Aug 06, 2008
By Martin Mitchell This is a great reference book providing information of when, where and how God has touched regions and people groups with his manifest presence over history. Many of these events are included and reported on providing the reader with an overview and insight into when revival has broken out and its impact on people, church and society.
