Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book is an autobiography by John Woolman. Active in the Quaker community in the late 1700s, Woolman was a pioneering advocate for social justice. His writings, composed in an era of slavery and extreme social inequality, are potent arguments for equality and an end to suffering. The author presents a deeply personal account of his spiritual journey and the trials and tribulations he endured as a Quaker minister. His profound compassion and introspection led to the development a social consciousness that extended beyond racial and religious lines - his arguments against slavery were not just personal beliefs but the result of sincere empathy for the oppressed. It is this empathy that made him an effective advocate for peace, abolition, and prison reform. Woolman's commitment to his beliefs despite the challenges articulates the Quaker values of humility, simplicity, and equality, making this book an enduring account of faith in action.
