“Greg Van Dussen has done us a great service in producing this extensive collection of reflections on the lives of Methodist circuit riders in the United States and Canada. Countless names, many of which have been forgotten today, are brought back to life in these pages in order to inspire us to honour their legacy. Van Dussen reminds us that we still have much to learn from the zeal, sacrifice, dedication, and singular focus of the circuit riders.
