Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

""Dress and Worldly Compliance: Addressed to the Members of the Society of Friends"" is a book written by Joseph Pike in 1872. The book is primarily focused on the dress code and appearance of members of the Society of Friends, commonly known as Quakers. Pike argues that members of the Society should not conform to the worldly standards of dress and appearance, but instead adhere to the simplicity and modesty that has been traditionally associated with Quakerism. He also discusses the importance of maintaining a consistent and recognizable appearance as a means of identifying oneself as a member of the Society. The book provides a historical perspective on the evolution of Quaker dress and appearance, and includes practical advice on how to maintain a simple and modest wardrobe. Overall, the book is a call to Quakers to resist the pressures of conformity and to remain true to their traditions and values.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
