Product Description
This newest book in the Profiles in Power series examines William Penn, the English Quaker who founded Pennsylvania. Books in PIP series are not biographies, though inevitably they contain much biographical material; rather they are succinct interpretative essays, analyzing the major features of the career within the context of its own time. Assesses both Penn's religious and political significance in America and Britain and examines early colonial issues such as persecution, toleration, slavery and native Americans. Those interested in colonial American history, Quaker (religious) history in the USA. Also available in Hardcover 0-582-29901-2.
