The Forgotten Awakening, Second Edition

How the Second Great Awakening Spread West of the Rockies
The Forgotten Awakening, Second Edition reveals the untold story of a spiritual revival among Western tribes during the Second Great Awakening (1799-1830), ignited by tribal prophecies and Christian teachings shared by figures like Jedediah Smith. This awakening, centered around Spokan Garry, the first Christian evangelist west of the Rockies, was overshadowed by the Indian Removal Act and the false belief that Christianity was solely a "white man's religion."
