Synopsis:

Walter R. Williams presents a picture of the courage, faith, devotion, and sacrifice that have been displayed throughout the history of Quakerism. Biographical sketches of Quaker leaders challenge the reader to Christian integrity and selfless service. The principles of Quakerism and its influence on society are evident in this carefully researched history of the movement. Paul Anderson, professor at George Fox University, has written an epilogue (1987) adding major developments that have taken place within Quakerism since this book was first published in 1962. Anderson also examines issues confronting Quakers entering the twenty-first century.

About the Author: Walter R. Williams (1884-1973) was a missionary educator in China, a pastor, a teacher at Cleveland Bible College (now Malone College, Canton, Ohio), and superintendent of Ohio Yearly Meeting (now Evangelical Friends Church—Eastern Region). His scholarship qualified him for membership in Phi Beta Kappa when a student at Ohio Wesleyan University, and he later received the Doctor of Divinity degree from Wheaton College. Hi ministry continues through the many lives he profoundly influenced and through his writing.
