The full significance of Cecil Henry Polhill (1860-1938), the
wealthy squire of Howbury Hall, is known to few, yet he was one of
the founding fathers of the Pentecostal-Charismatic tradition in
Britain, and his impact and legacy stretch far beyond British
shores to North America, the Far East and elsewhere. In Cecil
Polhill: Missionary, Gentleman and Revivalist John Usher
comprehensively connects Polhill's early life and former
experiences as an Evangelical Anglican missionary in China, a
member of the Cambridge Seven, with his time as a pioneer of early
Pentecostalism, and in doing so reveals a much more richly
contoured and multifaceted picture of the development of early
Pentecostalism than previously achieved.
