History of the Religious Society of Friends V2: From Its Rise to the Year 1828 is a comprehensive account of the origins and development of the Quaker movement. Written by Samuel M. Janney, a prominent Quaker historian and minister, the book covers the period from the founding of the Society of Friends in the mid-17th century to the year 1828. The book delves into the Quaker beliefs and practices, including their emphasis on simplicity, pacifism, and equality. It also explores the social and political context in which the movement arose, including the English Civil War, the Restoration, and the Enlightenment. Janney draws on a wide range of primary sources, including Quaker journals, letters, and official documents, to provide a detailed and nuanced account of the Quaker experience. He also offers insights into the challenges and controversies that the movement faced, including persecution, schisms, and debates over theology and practice. Overall, History of the Religious Society of Friends V2: From Its Rise to the Year 1828 is an essential resource for anyone interested in the Quaker tradition and its role in shaping the history of religion, politics, and society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
