Description: The recounting of the story of Revival on the Scottish Isle of Lewis in the late 1940s. It is a fascinating blend of history, biography and testimony. It includes the eye-witness accounts from Duncan Campbell and Mary Peckham.

"This is the best and most definitive study of the movement of the Spirit of God in the Hebrides during the middle of the twentieth century. There are people who sit and hear us year after year. They are loyal, orthodox, moral people but they lack vitality, discipleship, courage in witness-bearing, prayerfulness – they are rarely present in Prayer Meetings. One longs for a spark, a new insight that takes them over the edge into assurance and holy zeal. Reading the testimonies in the closing chapters of the book describing the radical transformation of the lives of ordinary church goers, gives hope for new life in those who faithfully hear us, but do little more. In matters of the Holy Spirit, never assume anything."
--Geoffrey Thomas, pastor and author

"By far the most authoritative account of one of the most famed of British revivals. It truly is another of those 'unputdownable' titles, and cannot fail to thrill and challenge the reader."
--Prophecy Today

"This will become for those burdened for revival a primary and powerful resource for understanding God's ways in sending 'times of refreshing' for His people."
--Rev. Dr. Ted S. Rendall, Chancellor Emeritus, Prairie Bible Institute and author of Fire in the Church

"…provides ringing affirmation that God is still on His throne and delights to make bare His mighty arm in revival when His people get serious with Him."
--Rev Richard Owen Roberts, author of Scotland Saw His Glory

"Here you can read Duncan Campbell's own reports, along with eyewitness records of those amazing days, and a description of the characteristics of the revival. …the desperate state of our society and the church which bears the name of Christ should drive us to pray with the Psalmist, 'Will You not revive us again, O Lord?'"
--Peter Grainger, Senior Pastor of Charlotte Chapel, Edinburgh

"In a time of extreme apathy among Christian people, yet when talk about revival has become trendy, many Christians have no real concept of true God-sent revival. May this publication be used to provide a clearer understanding of revival and also create a longing that God, in His providence, may revive us again."
--Rev Tom Shaw, Honorary President of The Faith Mission

"I cannot recall any book on revival that I have read that has given me greater pleasure, held my attention more, and incited my longing for a new visitation from God more than this one."
--Rev. Brian Edwards, author

"This is an awe-inspiring book. It must be, because it contains the testimonies of people converted in a time of revival."
--Evangelical Times
