Sommario/riassunto: The ""Businessmen's Revival"" was a religious revival that unfolded in the wake of the 1857 market crash among white, middle-class Protestants. Delving into the religious history of Boston in the 1850's, John Corrigan gives an imaginative and wide-ranging interpretive study of the revival's significance.
