1696 Historia Quakeriana EARLY AMERICA Dutch Croese Quakers William Penn Sewel

 

Gerard Croese was a 17^th-century Dutch minister who is primarily remembered for his chronicle on the early history of the Quakers. First written in 1695, ‘Historia Quakeriana’ was inspired and written based on the letters of William Sewel and covers events leading to the foundation of the Society of Friends by George Fox. Other important contents include William Penn and his life in Pennsylvania.

 

Books published in the 17^th-century that cover early America are exceedingly rare and worthy of note. This book by Croese is no exception.
