""An Account of the Life, Travels, and Christian Experiences in the Work of the Ministry of Samuel Bownas"" is a memoir written by Samuel Bownas himself, and published posthumously in 1805. The book chronicles Bownas' life from his birth in 1676 to his death in 1753, with a particular focus on his religious experiences and his work as a Quaker minister. Bownas was born into a Quaker family in Yorkshire, England, and was raised in the Quaker faith. He began his ministry at a young age, traveling extensively throughout England, Ireland, and the American colonies to preach and spread the Quaker message. Along the way, he faced numerous challenges and obstacles, including imprisonment and persecution for his beliefs.The book offers a firsthand account of the Quaker way of life in the 18th century, including their beliefs, practices, and social customs. It also provides a glimpse into the broader historical and cultural context of the time, including the religious and political tensions that characterized the era.Overall, ""An Account of the Life, Travels, and Christian Experiences in the Work of the Ministry of Samuel Bownas"" is a valuable historical document that sheds light on the life and work of a prominent Quaker minister and provides insight into the Quaker faith and its role in the broader social and cultural landscape of the time.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
