Celebrating the Quaker Way

by Ben Pink Dandelion

This pocket-sized book celebrates the Quaker way and affirms the wonderful riches of the Quaker tradition in Britain, and the Quaker ‘Liberal tradition’ more widely. It is a book for Quakers rather than about them. It talks of ‘us’ and ‘we’ and is for ‘insiders’. It is a devotional book, for us.

A very short but fascinating little book. As a previous Quaker attender I am looking to now attend my local meeting since a relocation several years ago and this book has helped me find the courage to go back.

An earnest writing

This book is more of a leaflet - but very peaceful and calming to read. It is like a love letter to Quakerism, really, and as such dwells on the best of Quaker times. As I read it, whilst carried away and inspired by the flow of words, I was also remembering two very difficult meetings I attended less than a week before, where people were behaving in a way that seemed to me to be less than Quakerly.

I shall no doubt read this little book many, many times again however, aware that it speaks of the best of Quakerism.

Thought inviting.

A brief though provoking account of being a Quaker. Easy to read and leaves you thinking about the part you play in the lives of others around you.
