Excerpt from Quaker Campaigns in Peace and War In offering this book of reminiscences to the public, it should be understood that it does not purport to be a complete autobiography. The main object attempted has been to gather up, at the pressing invitation of many personal friends, some fragments of my experiences at home and abroad, in connection with certain leading events in European history during the last half-century. Imperfect as these records are, it is hoped that they may be of interest, as a small contribution to the thoughtful consideration of some important questions, especially the subject of the modern ruinous armaments, which have of late obtained so generous a share of national and international attention and effort. If, in the narratives of travel, the allusions to the Society of Friends may appear to some readers to be rather too frequent, it must be remembered that it was mainly in connection with, and at the request of, that religious body that my journeys in America, and among our English-speaking kin dred at the Antipodes, as well as on behalf of suffering humanity in Europe, were undertaken. These gratuitous services, though often arduous, and at times perilous, were truly a labour of love, as well as of duty.

Excerpt from The Faith of a Quaker There arise also the insistent questions which beset all mystics, and which in Quakerism demanded a corporate, instead of an individual, answer. Was the light infallible? Was the claim to it an assumption of spiritual exaltation. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Professor Kennedy's book chronicles the metamorphosis of the British Society of Friends from a tiny, self-isolated body of peculiar people into a theologically liberal, spiritually vital association of activists. Defined by a strong social commitment and enduring pacifist ethic British Quakersassumed an importance in society out of all proportion to their minuscule numbers. This transformation was, first and foremost, the product of a spiritual and intellectual struggle among Quaker factions-evangelical, conservative, and liberal-seeking to delineate the future path of their religiousSociety. Inspired by the leadership of a remarkable band of intellectually acute, theologically progressive, and spiritually committed men and women, London Yearly Meeting was both reformed and revitalised during the so-called Quaker Renaissance. Simultaneously embracing advanced modern ideas andreiterating their attachment to traditional Quaker principles, especially the egalitarian concept of the Inner Light of Christ and a revived peace testimony, liberal Quakers prepared the ground for their Society's dramatic confrontation with the Warrior State after 1914. Official Quaker resistance to the Great War not only fixed the image of the Society of Friends as Britain's most authentic and significant peace church, it also brought a group of talented and determined Quaker women into the front lines of the Society's struggle against war and conscription, aposition from which twentieth-century female Friends have never retreated. Quakerism emerged from the war as the religious body least tainted by spiritual compromise. Thus, when British Quakers hosted the first World Conference of All Friends in 1920, they could take satisfaction in their struggle to keep alive the voce of pacifist conscience and express renewed hope intheir enduring mission to create the Kingdom of God on earth.
