Synopsis:
This is a print on demand book and is therefore non- returnable.
The greatest of the tent and tabernacle revivalists, preaching to over 100 million people from 1908 to 1920, Billy Sunday stands as one of the most significant mass evangelists of the twentieth century. In his full-length biography of Sunday, Lyle Dorsett makes a fresh and original contribution to our understanding of this pugnacious baseball player turned preacher with his use of the Sunday daily papers, a source previously unavailable to biographers.
About the Author: Professor of Christian Education at Wheaton College in Wheaton, Illinois. He has written and edited a number of books on American urban history and works on C. S. Lewis and G. K. Chesterton.
