The Quakers in England and America

"I have attempted to make a history, eliminating or condensing what I conceive to be the non-essentials in such a work (features of importance and interest, which have been ably treated in special works easily available). I have endeavored to prepare a history for the masses, yet one in which the student or historian will find the essential facts of Quakerism without having to refer to interminable works and pamphlets scattered over America and England, in very few libraries in the United States outside of New York, Philadelphia, Boston, and certain schools and colleges, as Haverford, Swarthmore, and others. [...] In a word, I have hoped to present a popularly written condensed history of the Quakers, yet covering a wide range."
