Very unusual to find a run of the six first years of The National Preacher together. In this influential monthly published in the throes of the Second Great Awakening, Austin Dickinson compiled and published the best of the American, evangelical pulpit from across denominational lines, focusing on missionary, experimental, revivalist, and political discourse. 

Both Iain Murray and Dr. Joel Beeke have recommended this important distillation of theological and revivalist preaching as a "must read."
