The History Of The Rise, Increase And Progress Of The. Quakers, Tr., Revised by William Sewel is a 17th?century chronicle of the rise and growth of the Society of Friends (Quakers). Translated from Dutch into English, the work surveys the origins of the Quaker movement, the reformational currents that fed it, and the remarkable careers of early leaders such as George Fox and Margaret Fell. It recounts the inward light doctrine, the pacifist and nonconformist ethos, and the widespread persecutions faced in England, Scotland, Ireland, and the Netherlands, as well as the Quakers’ later emergence in North America. The narrative blends biography, theology, and social history, detailing Fox’s travels and imprisonments, Nayler’s infamous trial, and the movement’s expansion through letters, testimonies, and dialogues. It portrays a radical religious reform movement whose insistence on inner revelation and peaceful witness contributed to the development of religious liberty in modern times.
