George Fox

""George Fox"" is a biographical book written by Mrs. St. Clair Stobart that tells the story of the life and work of George Fox, the founder of the Religious Society of Friends, also known as Quakers. The book covers Fox's early life, his spiritual journey, and his travels throughout England and America, where he preached his message of religious freedom, equality, and non-violence. It also explores the social and political context of the time, including the English Civil War, the Restoration, and the persecution of dissenters. The author portrays Fox as a visionary and a radical thinker who challenged the established religious and social norms of his time and paved the way for the modern Quaker movement. The book is based on historical sources and primary documents, including Fox's own writings, and provides a comprehensive and engaging account of one of the most influential figures in English religious history.THIS 18 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Torchbearers of Spiritualism, by Mrs. St. Clair Stobart.
