This work gives a detailed history and defense of the Advent Movement of the 1840's known as Millerism, the movement from which the Seventh-day Adventist denomination sprang. The book is based on original sources, William Miller's correspondence, contemporaneous books, pamphlets, journals, newspapers. The first half is devoted to the history of the movement, and the second half to an examination of charges made against the Advent believers, such as that they wore ascension robes, that the Millerite preaching filled the asylums, and so forth.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Excellent Historical Reference,
By R. McRae (Saugus, CA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Midnight Cry (Paperback)
Another excellent work from the pen of Francis David Nichol in defense of the Millerite movement, and Seventh-day Adventisms roots. Will leave critics scratching their heads and asking, "where were all the mass suicides and abundance of fanatical behaviour?" A myth that has been perpetuated for far too long. Even "Kingdom of the Cults" author Walter Martin had to change his thinking concerning such, after his reading of this book. Well researched and documented.
