George Fox (1624-91), founder of The Religious Society of Friends (or Quakers), was well known during his lifetime as a healer and worker of miracles. He wrote prolifically of how he used God's power to effect over one hundred and fifty cures, of both physical disease or injury and mental or psychological problems. This work was critical to spreading the word about Quakerism in its early years. Many of Fox's papers were lost after his death, but from the clues and fragments that remained, and a contemporary index of his works, Henry Cadbury (1883-1974) was able to create this book, published in 1948. The preface make clear that this was not intended as a work of critical analysis, though the findings are annotated with historical and documentary detail. The editor's devotion to his task is testament to the historical and spiritual significance of Fox's contribution to Quakerism.… (más)

While George Fox’s Journal is familiar to Quakers, few know of his ‘Book of Miracles’. Fox was a healer as well as a minister and author, manifesting over 150 recorded instances of cures. The reports of these miracles played a significant part in the spread of Quakerism in the early years of the movement.
Although Fox left money for its publication after his death, the manuscript was lost. The first printing in 1948 was the result of years of work by Henry Cadbury, who painstakingly pieced together the text from clues and fragments contained in Fox’s Journals and letters.
This new edition, faithfully based on Cadbury’s work, includes new forewords by Jim Pym and Paul Anderson to help give the reader a fuller understanding of George Fox’s contribution to Quakerism. ( )
