First edition of the "classic statement of Quaker principles" (ODNB), a vital codification which helped transform the movement from a loose community to a tightly focussed sect. Before reaching his 28th birthday, Robert Barclay (1648-1690) wrote a series of works that defined Quaker thinking for centuries and shaped the group in…to a co-ordinated movement which could defend itself against the persecution of the restored Stuart monarchs. This is his most comprehensive and fully developed treatise, an elaborate defence of his earlier Theses theologicae (1674). The Apologia helped to define such essential Quaker doctrines as inward revelation and the universal saving light. Barclay asserted that neither Church nor scripture could claim ultimate authority in spiritual matters, both ultimately subordinated to the internal guidance of the holy spirit. The Apologia proved particularly influential among the French philosophes: Voltaire praised Barclay's writing on toleration, while Jaucourt deemed it "the most rational and the most perfect system yet conceived" (quoted in Phillips, p. 86). ESTC R11963. Edith Phillips, "The Friends as seen by the French", Bulletin of Friends Historical Association, vol. 18, no. 2, 1929. Quarto (213 x 165 mm), pp. [xxiv], 376, [26]. Wood-engraved initial.

Title page mounted on stub. Light rubbing, minor browning and foxing to contents, unobtrusive paper repairs to several leaves: a very good copy.

calligraphic title-page in red and black ink, 38 photographs of various types laid down all identified by the maiden names of those depicted, accompanied by an equal number of cards and letters bearing messages to the Longmaids, a 2pp. printed poem by Martha B. Baker tipped in, ff. 27, oblong folio, full crimson morocco with bor…der and decorations in gilt, upper board with 'L.C.K. [Ladies College Kendal]' stamped in gilt, some wear at extremities, good. A handsome tribute to William Henry Longmaid and his wife Margaret (née Brown), Quaker schoolteachers who ran the College for ten years before her health took them to Southport and a smaller establishment in 1880. His educational specialism was science, but in later life he established a reputation as an artist. Excepting Miss Mulley, who heads the group, the album is arranged alphabetically (by maiden name): the names Braithwaite, Crosfield, Pecover, Richardson and Sim recur. Amongst the ex-pupils is Rachel Juliet Fox (née Fowler), the first president of the Panacea Society - an organisation founded after the Great War and based on the teachings of Joanna Southcott.
