The period 1741-1770, covered by this second and concluding volume on George Whitefield, 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 evangelise the people of the English-speaking world, where multitudes of 'the humble poor' believed, and members of the aristocracy heard the message of grace.
