출판사 설명
"It seemed impossible for Billy Sunday to stand behind the pulpit and talk only with his mouth. When he alluded to the man who acts no better than a four-footed brute, Sunday was down on all fours and you saw that brute. In a dramatic description of the marathon, he pictured an athlete falling at the goal and--there lay the evangelist on the platform."
Through his ministry, approximately three hundred thousand persons were led to faith in Christ.

The final chapter says it all.
Poor biography
I have only read the sample but I have problems with this book:
1.) The book reads like a high schooler’s research paper on a famous American. Trust me, I am a high schooler and I have written essays/research papers on people.
2.) Several pages of chapter one are quotes of Sunday’s, giving his life story. If one is going to write a well written biography, they need to actually write their own words. Yes, use the words of Billy Sunday as part of your sources, of course. It would be hard to write a biography without consulting words and such of the person being written about. However, if I wanted to read Billy Sunday’s own words about his life, I would just read his writings and quotes.
Poor biography, unfortunately. : (
