Synopsis
For more than 200 years, Robert Barclay’s “Apology for the True Christian Divinity (being an explanation and vindication of the principles and doctrines of the people called Quakers),” first published in 1676, was considered the most authoritative exposition of Quaker belief and practice, a synthesis of personal religious experience and the historical context of religion. This is Eleanor Price Mather’s condensation of Barclay’s “Apology,” with a preface by Howard H. Brinton. 72 pages.
