The First Tract Is Commonly Available But The Later Tracts Were Mostly Based On A Popular Theological Interpretation Of Christian Principles And Unreadable By Anyone Involved In Executive Decisions Particularly As War Had Been The Usual Basis Of Promotion And Wealth In All Socities Worldwide . Finely Bound In Polished Blue Calf Four Raised Bands Decorated In Gilt Morocco Spine Label Blind-Stamped Compartments Covers With Four Sets Of Gilt Border Rules With Ornate Gilt Embellishments At Corners Of Two Central Sets Of Rules All Edges Gilt Finely Hand-Marbled End Papers Four Wavy Gilt Lines On All Turns. Binding Worn Page Block Neatly Detached From Binding No Chips Or Tears Could Be Nicely Refurbished.

1797028149New York: Printed and sold by Isaac Collins no. 189 Pearl-Street 1797. Small Octavo. xii 2 360 pages. In this travelogue and account of American Quaker practice Scott recounts how he traveled from his home in Rhode Island to congregations of Friends throughout the United States in 1779. The big issue was the Quaker refusal to pay taxes to support the war. Though evocative place names are abundant travel-detail is limited. His diary is divided between his soul-searching and specific accounts of his experiences at various meetings. Although Scott often records feeling compelled to remain silent in these meetings he was a notable speaker and his writings although they became controversial after his death were highly influential. "A testimony from the Monthly Meeting of Providence concerning Job Scott."--Page iii-x./ Bio/History: "The Rhode Island Quaker minister Job Scott . was not a deist but a Quietist who advocated the inward experience of God over any outward authorities and placed personal experience as central to authentic spiritual experience ." Previous owner's gift of book reads: "Mary Lawson to Lactitia Harry to Sarah Lukens". The inscription appears to be in the early 19th century. Bound in modern black cloth spine lettering gilt newer endpapers some toning to leaves. A very good copy. Cf. Dandelion Introduction to Quakerism p. 84. Evans 32810; Howes S-228.
