On Membership in the Society of Friends

By Robert Barclay of Tottenham

This work presents an incredible history of the 'Society of Friends', a Christian group that emerged in mid-17th-century England, committed to living under the "Inner Light," or direct inward apprehension of God, without creeds, clergy, or other ecclesiastical forms. The author, Robert Barclay, was a Scottish Quaker and one of the most prominent writers of the Religious Society of Friends.
