Friends for 300 Years: The History and Beliefs of the Society of Friends Since George Fox Started the Quaker Movement by Howard H. Brinton

tragiccharacter's review against another edition

4.0

I found this book very quotable. It was not an easy read. Your ear needs to be tuned to a very different voice. But I appreciate this book for its guidance in the typical Quaker way.... telling/informing/witnessing, not preaching. The Lord and Any Adult will tell you that preaching is the best way to breed dissent! If you are interested in Quakerism, this book is a good read. But be prepared to invest some time and thought in it. I got my copy from Pendle Hill which has a great collection of books for the Quaker and just general seeker (like me).
