This is Jonathan Edwards' personal account of the extraordinary awakening that began in 1734 in Northampton, Massachusetts, New England, USA.
It was this revival, and Edwards' reporting of it, that provoked others on both sides of the Atlantic to seek God in prayer for a move of God in their days. This revival became known as 'the most glorious and extensive revival of religion and reformation of manners' the country had ever known and subsequently spread to Europe and other parts of the civilized world .
It was Edward's first-hand experience at the epicentre of the revival that inspired his insightful perceptions on revival in his later writings.
