About This Item
London: George Allen & Unwin Ltd.. Moderately worn green cloth covers with gilt decorative stamp on covers and on spine (with title). Spine edges frayed, piece of black cloth tape over bottom quarter of spine. Library stamps and pocket with card. Pages very good. In documenting the religious history of Hitchin, the author holds up before us the intense personal conviction in which the Quaker movement began, the heroic endurance in the face of long-continued persecution, and the weakness which hindered the growth of the movement and afterwards induced decline. . Good. Hardcover. 1929.
