Publisher's Synopsis
""A Call From Death To Life"" is a historical account of the sufferings of four Quaker missionaries - Marmaduke Stephenson, William Robinson, Mary Dyer, and John Copeland - in New England during the year 1659. The book, written by John Whitehead and originally published in 1886, details the persecution and imprisonment of these individuals for their beliefs, as well as their eventual execution by hanging. The narrative also explores the broader context of religious intolerance and conflict in colonial New England, shedding light on the experiences of Quakers and other dissenters during this period. Through the use of primary source material and firsthand accounts, ""A Call From Death To Life"" provides a vivid and compelling portrait of the challenges faced by early Quaker missionaries in America.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
