I actually got this book a little by accident, but I thought I'd give it a try. It was good, but I didn't love it. It was a good introduction, but Most of the information in it wasn't really new. I did enjoy some primary sources relating to the 2nd Great Awakening. On the whole, I think this book is better suited to someone young rather than an adult. For adults, I would definitely recommend the History of Joseph Smith by his mother rather than this book.
