Overview

The Revival of Evangelicalism presents a critical analysis of the evangelical movement in the national Church. It emphasises the manner in which the movement both continued along certain pre-Disruption lines and evolved to represent a broader spectrum of Reformed Presbyterian doctrine and piety during the long reign of Queen Victoria. The author interweaves biographical case studies of influential figures who played key roles in the process of revival and recovery, including William Muir, Norman MacLeod and A. H. Charteris. Based on a diverse range of primary sources, the book places the chronological development of 'established evangelicalism' within the broader context of British imperialism, German biblical criticism, European Romanticism and Victorian print culture.

""Jones has written a valuable new book that reveals the vitality of evangelicalism within the Church of Scotland (CofS) in the period after the division with the Free Church of Scotland in 1843. Jones has written an outstanding book that deserves a wide readership. This book takes its place as a fascinating and outstanding study of how evangelical departure from the CofS actually led to new evangelical growth and intensity within the older national church. "" -Jeffrey McDonald
