Synopsis
The report of a national consultation with U.S. Quakers carried on behalf of the Earlham School of Religion. A complex picture of U.S. Quakerism emerges, showing Friends thriving in some places, stalled in others. Leadership is a central concern: the need for it, the difficulties of providing it, the possibilities for nurturing it. This is probably the most comprehensive look at Quakers in the U.S. ever conducted.
