In this classic text, Rufus M. Jones offers an insightful overview
of Quaker history, beliefs and humanitarianism. The Society of
Friends was founded in the seventeenth century by George Fox, who
could not abide by the teachings of the established Church of
England. Convinced that communicating with Christ need not involve
a qualified clergyman, he founded the Society of Friends. Many
found his approach refreshing, but it also stirred up resentment
and resistance in the established Christian order. A defining
difference between the Quakers and other denominations is the
process by which Friends meet and communicate directly with God.
Such spiritual conversation between adherents was immediately
different from conventional gatherings wherein a preacher offers
the congregation a speech on a given subject. Rufus M. Jones
discusses these topics with maturity and respect, drawing upon the
existing histories and accounts in a manner certain to sustain the
reader's interest.
