The History of the Rise, Increase, and Progress, of the Christian People Called Quakers: With Several Remarkable Occurrences Intermixed; Written ... Translated Into English (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Synopsis
This book begins with a perspective on the foundational principles of Quakerism in the 1600s. The author then delves into the harrowing circumstances of the movement's early adherents. These included intense religious persecution, imprisonment, and even executions. George Fox, the central figure of the narrative, emerges as a steadfast and compelling leader. Despite the adversities they faced, the Quakers' ideals of pacifism, simplicity, and religious tolerance spread among disenchanted English protestors. These tenets, which were considered radical at the time, laid the groundwork for modern concepts of religious freedom and civil liberty. This book is a captivating historical account that sheds light on the origins, struggles, and lasting influence of a faith promoting peace and understanding.
