Description: This biography, written by a provocative, prolific historian, gives readers insights into Nevin’s critique of the revivalist tradition and shows how it applies today. Hart recovers a nearly forgotten nineteenth-century theologian and demonstrates his ongoing relevance. This book is extensively documented, and includes a substantial bibliographical essay and an index.

Nevin (1803–1886) taught at Mercersburg Seminary when he wrote The Anxious Bench (1843) and The Mystical Presence (1846), volumes dealing with revivalism and the Lord’s Supper, respectively. The last ten years have seen a revival of interest in this theologian, who was a graduate of Princeton Theological Seminary and who substituted for Hodge during his two-year study-leave in Europe.

"A well-researched and engagingly written theological biography of an often neglected figure. It is especially good at digging out Nevin's important proposals about the church in its American setting that were published in the Mercerburg Review. Whether or not readers come away with Hart's own conclusion that Nevin was largely correct in his prescriptions for reforming American Protestant practice, they will benefit from following Hart as he carefully lays out the burden of Nevin's concerns."
--Mark A. Noll, McManis Professor of Christian Thought, Wheaton College
