Double-weighted statement
John Woolman (1720-1772) was an early leader of Quaker abolitionism and outreach to American Indians. After his death he came to be revered as a 'Quaker saint'. Drawing on many years of archival research in Britain and the United States, this 320-page book situates Woolman within his social context, examining his interactions with Quakers and non-Quakers, slaves and free blacks, American Indians, military officers and others. It has been reviewed with acclaim in the scholarly journals.
