An illuminating collection of work by members of the Religious Society of
Friends.
Covering nearly three centuries of religious development, this comprehensive
anthology brings together writings from prominent Friends that illustrate the
development of Quakerism, show the nature of Quaker spiritual life, discuss
Quaker contributions to European and American civilization, and introduce the
diverse community of Friends, some of whom are little remembered even among
Quakers today. It gives a balanced overview of Quaker history, spanning the
globe from its origins to missionary work, and explores daily life, beliefs,
perspectives, movements within the community, and activism throughout the world.
It is an exceptional contribution to contemporary understanding of religious
thought.
