Quakerism, Past and Present is a comprehensive inquiry into the causes of the decline of Quakerism in Great Britain and Ireland. Written by John Stephenson Rowntree, a prominent Quaker and social reformer, the book explores the history and development of Quakerism, as well as the challenges faced by the religion in the modern era. Rowntree examines the decline of Quakerism from various angles, including changes in society, the rise of other religious movements, and internal divisions within the Quaker community. He also discusses the role of Quakerism in social reform movements, such as the abolition of slavery and the fight for women's suffrage.Throughout the book, Rowntree provides a nuanced and insightful analysis of the challenges facing Quakerism, while also highlighting the enduring values and principles that have sustained the religion for centuries. Quakerism, Past and Present is a must-read for anyone interested in the history and philosophy of Quakerism, as well as the broader social and cultural trends that have shaped modern Britain and Ireland.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
