Synopsis

The Quaker Cross: A Story Of The Old Bowne House is a historical novel written by Cornelia Mitchell Parsons and published in 1911. The story is set in the late 17th century and follows the lives of a Quaker family who lived in the Old Bowne House in Flushing, New York. The novel explores the Quaker faith, their beliefs, and the challenges they faced in a society that was not always accepting of their religion.The main character is a young Quaker girl named Patience Bowne, who is determined to follow her faith despite the opposition she faces from her family and community. She is deeply committed to the Quaker values of peace, equality, and simplicity, and she strives to live her life in accordance with these principles.As the story unfolds, Patience and her family face a number of challenges, including persecution from non-Quaker neighbors, financial difficulties, and personal struggles. However, they remain steadfast in their faith and continue to live their lives according to their beliefs.The Quaker Cross is a poignant and inspiring story that offers a glimpse into the lives of Quakers in colonial America. It is a testament to the strength and resilience of the human spirit, and a reminder of the importance of standing up for one's beliefs in the face of adversity.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
