Commonly acknowledged as Anglo-America's most popular
eighteenth-century preacher, George Whitefield commanded mass
audiences across two continents through his personal charisma.
Harry Stout draws on a number of sources, including the newspapers
of Whitefield's day, to outline his subject's spectacular career as
a public figure. Although Whitefield here emerges as very much a
modern figures, given to shameless self-promotion and extravagant
theatricality, Stout also shows that he was from first to last a
Calvinist, earnest in his support of orthodox theological tenets
and sincere in his concern for the spiritual welfare of the
thousands to whom he preached.
