Book Synopsis The Journal of George Fox by : John L. Nickalls
Book excerpt: Originally published in 1952, this book presents the revised text of the journal of George Fox, the charismatic and devout founder of Quakerism. The journal contains the events from 1624 to 1675, when Fox was released from prison and returned to Swarthmoor Hall. The language of the journal is modernised to appeal to the general reader, and the text is footnoted where necessary with explanatory notations. This book will be of value to anyone with an interest in the history of Quakerism or in English religious history more generally.
