The book Grand River Monthly Meeting Of Friends: Composed Of Indians by Jeremiah Hubbard, published in 1886, is a historical account of the Quaker community in Grand River, Ontario, Canada. The community was unique in that it was composed entirely of Indigenous people who had converted to Quakerism. The book details the establishment of the Grand River Monthly Meeting in 1820 and the growth of the community over the years. It also provides insight into the lives and beliefs of the Indigenous Quakers, including their struggles with assimilation and the challenges they faced in maintaining their traditional ways while embracing Quakerism. Hubbard's writing is informed by his own experiences as a Quaker missionary to the Indigenous communities in the area. He describes the efforts of the Quaker community to support the Indigenous people in their struggle for land rights and self-determination, as well as their work in establishing schools and other institutions to promote education and social justice. Overall, Grand River Monthly Meeting Of Friends: Composed Of Indians is a valuable historical document that sheds light on the intersection of Quakerism and Indigenous culture in Canada during the 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
