"Charles Pettit McIlvaine, who lived from 1799-1873, embodied the
evangelical creed of the nineteenth century. A clear-thinking,
intellectually rigorous Episcopalian, he exemplified the deep
emotional currents of revival and rebirth, of the 'conviction of
sin, ' of the need to be born again into new life. An aristocrat by
birth and bearing and a bishop by consecration of the Episcopal
Church, he knew himself to be a common sinner in God's sight, as
much in need of rescue as the folk to whom he ministered." - from
the Author's Preface "This valuable work on the great Victorian
Evangelical bishop of Ohio brings to life the story of an eminent
theologian, revivalist and churchman. McIlvaine ought to be better
known in our day. It is a great omission among Episcopalians in
North America that he is not. By his many works and contributions
he speaks today." - The Late Rev. Dr. Peter Toon, author of 'The
End of Liberal Theology' and former president of the Prayer Book
Society of the U. S. A.
