The book Life of William Savery of Philadelphia 1750-1804 written by Francis R. Taylor is a biography of the life and times of William Savery, a prominent Quaker minister and social reformer during the late 18th century. The book details Savery's upbringing in Philadelphia, his education, and his early career as a merchant before he became involved in the Quaker movement. The author provides a thorough examination of Savery's religious beliefs and his role in the Quaker community, including his travels throughout the United States and Europe as a minister. The book also delves into Savery's involvement in social reform movements, particularly his opposition to slavery and his efforts to improve conditions for the poor and marginalized. Through primary sources and personal accounts, Taylor paints a vivid picture of Savery's life and the world in which he lived, including the political and social upheavals of the American Revolution and the early years of the United States. The book is a valuable resource for those interested in Quaker history, the history of social reform, and the early years of the United States.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
