The Old Fashioned Revival Hour and the Broadcasters by J. Elwin Wright is a comprehensive historical account of one of the most popular and influential religious radio programs in American history. The Old Fashioned Revival Hour was a weekly radio program that aired from 1937 to 1958, featuring sermons, hymns, and gospel music performed by a rotating cast of ministers and musicians. The program was broadcast live from various locations across the United States, and it quickly gained a devoted following among evangelical Christians.Wright's book explores the origins of the Old Fashioned Revival Hour, tracing its development from a small local radio program to a national phenomenon. He also provides biographical sketches of the program's key figures, including its founder, Dr. Charles E. Fuller, and its musical director, Rudy Atwood. Wright examines the impact of the Old Fashioned Revival Hour on American religious culture, as well as its role in shaping the emerging Christian broadcasting industry.Throughout the book, Wright draws on a wealth of primary sources, including interviews with former program participants and archival materials from Fuller Seminary and the Billy Graham Center Archives. The result is a detailed and engaging account of a significant chapter in American religious history. The Old Fashioned Revival Hour and the Broadcasters is an essential read for anyone interested in the history of American Christianity, religious broadcasting, or the intersection of faith and media.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
