Synopsis

""A Letter to John Wilkinson: On Some Statement Contained in His Letter of Resignation of Membership in the Religious Society of Friends"" is a book written by Samuel Tuke in 1836. The book is a response to John Wilkinson's letter of resignation from the Religious Society of Friends, also known as Quakers. In his letter, Wilkinson criticized the Society's leadership and practices, and Tuke, a prominent Quaker and author, sought to address and refute some of Wilkinson's claims. The book is written in the form of a letter to Wilkinson, and Tuke discusses various topics related to the Society, including its history, beliefs, and practices. Tuke also addresses some of the specific criticisms that Wilkinson made in his letter of resignation. Overall, ""A Letter to John Wilkinson"" provides insight into the inner workings of the Religious Society of Friends during the early 19th century, as well as the challenges and criticisms that the Society faced during that time. It is a valuable historical document for anyone interested in the history of Quakerism or the religious and social movements of the 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
