Product Description
For more than 40 years, Billy Graham has been the dominant figure in the burgeoning worldwide movement of Evangelical Christianity. In this fascinating biography, Martin chronicles Graham's ascent from futile preaching in front of saloons to addressing huge throngs in the world's largest arenas, and his pursuit of expanding religion in Eastern Europe and the People's Republic of China. 24 photos.

 A friendly take on Graham November 28, 2007
2 out of 3 found this review helpful
While this book ranks as the most comprehensive take on Graham's life and career, it suffers from two shortcomings. William Martin is rather too uncritical of his subject, and, like most other Graham biographers, he depends too heavily on Graham's memory. Graham has repeatedly proven to be an unreliable source concerning his own history as I documented in my own research for THE PRINCE OF WAR: BILLY GRAHAM'S CRUSADE FOR A WHOLLY CHRISTIAN EMPIRE (Brave Ulysses Books, 2007). Unlike Marshall Frady whose BILLY GRAHAM: A PARABLE OF AMERICAN RIGHTEOUSNESS (reissued by Simon & Schuster, 2006) reported out some of the preacher's less admirable endeavors, Martin participates in the general canonization of Graham.
 This is THE Graham biography to buy April 3, 2004

If you buy only one book about Billy Graham, this should be it. Wonderfully written, it is an objective view by a writer who had full access to Graham and his staff, and full freedom to write the truth.
