Strength In Weakness

Writings Of Eighteenth-century Quaker Women

EDITED BY GIL SKIDMORE

Brief Description:
Quaker women in the eighteenth century were carrying on the faith and activity of their seventeenth-century forebears, but as a group their lives and writings have been neglected in modern times by both Quaker and other historians. Gil Skidmore, who is very well qualified to compile a selection of the writings of these Quaker women, has written an engaging introduction to their lives and times, and she brings together a rich array of letters, spiritual autobiographies, journals and memoirs.
