Excerpt from Selections From the Epistles of George Fox The volume of Epistles from which the present selection is made, was published in folio, in the year 1698. It is now extremely scarce. The letters which it contains were written, from about the year 1648 to 1690. They embrace a period of full forty years; and, being com posed at such different times, and on such various occasions, they serve materially to illustrate the early history of our Society, and the real character and Views of the chief in strument of its formation. This character and these views are, in the present day of ease, well worthy of our study. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
