Overview
The book ""Life Of William Savery Of Philadelphia 1750-1804"" by Francis R. Taylor is a biography of William Savery, a prominent Quaker minister and abolitionist from Philadelphia. The book covers Savery's life from his birth in 1750 to his death in 1804, detailing his upbringing, education, and career as a merchant before he became a minister. It also explores his involvement in the anti-slavery movement, his travels as a minister, and his relationships with other notable Quakers, such as John Woolman and Anthony Benezet. The book is based on primary sources, including Savery's own journals and letters, and provides a detailed portrait of a man who played an important role in both the Quaker community and the fight against slavery in early America.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
