Beginning in the mid-1730s, supporters and opponents of the revival commented on the extraordinary nature of what one observer called the "great ado," with its extemporaneous outdoor preaching, newspaper publicity, and rallies of up to 20,000 participants. Frank Lambert, biographer of Great Awakening leader George Whitefield, offers an overview of this important episode and proposes a new explanation of its origins OP - 300 CN - BR520 .L36 1999eb SN - 9780691223995 SN - 0691223998 SN - 0691043795 SN - 9780691043791 SN - 0691086915 SN - 9780691086910 KW - Great Awakening.
