is book explores the growth of abolitionism among Quakers in
Pennsylvania and New Jersey from 1688 to 1780, providing a case
study of how groups change their moral attitudes. Dr. Soderlund
details the long battle fought by reformers like gentle John
Woolman and eccentric Benjamin Lay. The eighteenth-century Quaker
humanitarians succeeded only after they diluted their goals to
attract wider support, establishing a gradualistic, paternalistic,
and segregationist model for the later antislavery movement.
Originally published in 1985. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the
latest print-on-demand technology to again make available
previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of
Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original
texts of these important books while presenting them in durable
paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy
Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage
found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University
Press since its founding in 1905.
