Get a taste of "Millerism," watch spiritualism grow, define "Sanitarium," get arrested for working on Sunday, weep with Dudley Canright, build a school system from the ground up, watch sneaky tricks fail to trap God's messenger, weigh the pros and cons of academic accreditation, see Adventism through Walter Martin's eyes—all with the advantage of Hindsight.

They say hindsight is always 20/20. Well, maybe. But as you will find in the pages of this book the issues faced by Seventh-day Adventists through the decades have not always been simple ones. We have had our success. We have had our failures. Now we have the opportunity to learn from both.
