Brookes (1830-1897) was an American Presbyterian minister. He was a premillennialist, believing that nowhere in the bible was there any hint of the millenium and that this surely meant the impending second coming of Christ. He also was a dispensationalist, in the manner of Moody et al, who hold that the Bible is to be taken literally. He was a long-time leader of the Niagara Bible conference which helped to spread this view and led to the Niagara Creed. This is a scarce title among his works which are still reprinted, and one of his last.
