A Sketch of the Life and Labors of George Whitefield: Pocket-sized edition (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9791029920448)

"My chief desire is to assist in forming a just estimate of Whitefield's worth. I wish to lend a helping hand towards raising his name from the undeservedly low place which is commonly assigned to it. I wish to place him before your eyes as a noble specimen of what the grace of God can enable one man to do. I want you to treasure up his name in your memories, as one of the brightest in that company of departed saints who were, in their day, patterns of good works, and of whom the world was not worthy. I propose, therefore, without further preface, to give you a hasty sketch of Whitefield's times, Whitefield's life, Whitefield's religion, Whitefield's preaching, and Whitefield's actual work on earth." JC Ryle.

Clear, energetic, and admiring in tone, this biographical tribute serves both as an introduction to Whitefield's life and as a defense of his enduring legacy in Protestant history.
