From the preface:
We present the religious public with another volume, unfolding and illustrating the wonderful success of Mr. Caughey’s labors in his revival efforts. It records the events, incidents, and results, of one of the most remarkable revivals of modern times — the revival in Birmingham, England. It also presents the result of his labors in several other places. Descriptions of several places he visited — the scenes of his revival labors — are given in his peculiarly interesting style. Several of his revival sermons and addresses are given. These, by many, will be regarded as the most interesting part of the volume. We think it will be found, in every respect, as interesting and profitable as either of his other works; and, should it find as many readers, will undoubtedly accomplish as much good.
The sale of Mr. Caughey’s works has been unprecedented in the history of religious literature in this country. In six years, about seventy thousand volumes have been sold. The good they have done is immense. We trust the present volume will be made a blessing to thousands! That many a sinner may be turned from the error of his way to serve the Lord, and that multitudes of God’s people may be led to the highest attainments of Christian experience, by reading its thrilling pages, is the earnest prayer of the editor.

About the author:
James Caughey (1810-1891) was a Methodist minister and evangelist who served the Lord in the United States, Canada, and England. He was well known for his revivals, and it was typical for many to be led to salvation under his ministry.
Born in Ireland, he and his family moved to New York while he was yet a child. He was converted at the age of 20, and began his ministry a short two years later.
He is probably best known for his revivals in England in the 1840s, where he converted many, including William Booth, founder of the Salvation Army. In addition to these meetings, he was the first 'professional' evangelists to tour Canada, and inspired D. L. Moody greatly by his preaching.
