This biography enriches our knowledge of American history in the first half of the nineteenth century. It constitutes the first full-length study of an important but little known Quaker. The story of Moses Sheppard from his uncertain beginnings to successful businessman to his later years as a philanthropist, has a Horatio Alger quality about it. His activities, caught up as they were in Quaker concerns, seem to be a microcosm of the history of the early years of the republic.
