Abraham Lincoln

Lessons In Spiritual Leadership

BY ELTON TRUEBLOOD
In this classic work, Quaker philosopher Elton Trueblood shows how Lincoln's leadership skills flowed directly from his religious convictions-which explains how the president was able to combine what few leaders can hold together: moral resoluteness with a shrewd ability to compromise; confidence in his cause while refusing to succumb to the traps of self-righteousness or triumphalism; and a commitment to victory while never losing sight of his responsibility for-or the humanity of-his enemy. These rich meditations offer deep wisdom and insight on one of the most effective leaders of all time.

The People Called Quakers

BY ELTON TRUEBLOOD
This volume is more philosophical than historical. It is an effort to depict a people who represent one element in radical Christianity and their ideas and insights. The book attempts to sum up the many avenues Quakerism has explored and to see it as an entire movement containing contrasting and complementary emphases. The author sees this book as especially valuable to those of other faiths interested in exploring Quakerism.
