Historical Coverage on Awakening

This work does an excellent job in allowing the student of awakenings a historical overview. The book's most salient features are its breadth of history and its applicable points of history for the twenty-first century.

Excellent discourse on the history of revivals

Firefall, written by two godly Baptist professors is a through treatise of the History of Revivals from Biblical Days to the present. Being Baptists they abbreviate the Pentacostal experience in many of the Revivals. In particular they give the Toronto Blessing a very short and inadequate discussion. They do bring out many events in the fundamental - evangelical world that are very interesting and not pentecostal. All in all a good read.

An Introduction to the History of Evangelical Revivals

This is one of the most comprehensive surveys on the subject of revival in print. It covers the history of revival from the Old Testament through the Modern period. Excellent analysis of differences and highlights between the different movements of God in the past.
