BOOK - The Largest amount of Good: Quaker Relief in Ireland, 1654 - 1921,
by Helen E. Hatton.
In Ireland, a nation long torn by religious animosity, one Protestant sect has consistently been held in affection by the Catholics - the Religious Society of Friends or Quakers. Quaker response to the condition of Ireland were positive and always distinctive. Their concern was especially evident in the overwhelming crisis of 1846-1849 - the Great Famine - when Quakers mounted a massive relief program.
This carefully researched hardcover book explores the development of the Quaker's distinctive position in a narration of what they did, what they tried to do, and what they achieved in Ireland. It is a story that deserves to be told!
Filled with extensive research, well documented bibliography and index. This book is a must for those with Quaker connections in Ireland or those with an interest in the work of the Friends for more than two hundred years in the Irish countryside.
367 p./ Index.
