Here is a very rare work; a reflection on the revivals of 1857 and 1858 and works erupting out of it by one of the great pastoral theologians of the time and one of its primary instruments. I don't actually recall having handled this work before. Very scarce.

Alexander, James W. The Revival and its Lessons: A Collection of Fugitive Papers Having Reference to the Great Awakening of 1858. New York. American Tract Society. 1859. 219pp 

Sections include: The Harvest of New York; O for More Feeling!; The Unawakened; Pray for the Spirit, etc. . . 

Very good and crisp with some early ex circulating library marks; remains of a former cover appended to pastedowns.
