Publisher Description: In this sequel to the 1912 edition of The Beginnings of Quakerism, Braithwaite examines the period of organization and growth experienced by the Society of Friends in the late 17th and early 18th centuries. It is during this period that the dynamic leadership of George Fox and William Penn transforms the Quakers into a functioning spiritual community of vocal and politically volatile religious reformers. |
