About this title

Synopsis

""Quakerism, Past and Present"" is a historical analysis of the Quaker faith in Great Britain and Ireland, written by John Stephenson Rowntree. The book explores the reasons for the decline of Quakerism in these regions, examining both external factors such as social and political changes, as well as internal factors such as theological disagreements and changing attitudes towards religion. Rowntree draws on his own experiences as a Quaker and his extensive research to provide a detailed account of the history of the Quaker movement, its beliefs and practices, and its impact on British and Irish society. The book also includes a discussion of the current state of Quakerism and its prospects for the future. Overall, ""Quakerism, Past and Present"" offers a comprehensive and insightful analysis of one of the most important religious movements in British and Irish history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
