Is there a book or article on the altercall history?

Is there a book or article on the altercall history? I heard Leonard Ravenhill speak about this item very often in his sermons.My question is: Is there a book or an article on the altar call history?Not only when it started, but also when there was no alter call at all.Lee

Hi Lee,Here is a bit of history;http://www.graceonlinelibrary.org/theology/full.asp?ID=509Scroll down to: Decisional Regeneration and Altar Calls (With acknowledgements to Ken @http://www.theologyweb.com)

Thanks a lot.Lee
