The History of Thomas Ellwood Written By Himself is an autobiographical account of the life of Thomas Ellwood, written by Ellwood himself. The book details Ellwood’s experiences as a Quaker in 17th century England, including his interactions with notable figures such as John Milton and William Penn. Ellwood also discusses his time spent in prison for his Quaker beliefs and his eventual release. The book provides a firsthand account of the persecution faced by Quakers during this time period and sheds light on the struggles faced by those who dared to challenge the religious and social norms of the era. Overall, The History of Thomas Ellwood Written By Himself offers a unique perspective on the life of a Quaker in 17th century England and provides valuable insights into the religious and social history of the time.I, who knew how it stood with me better than he did, felt a weight come over me as soon as he had spoken the word; for I presently saw it would bring a very great exercise upon me. But having never resisted his will in anything that was lawful, as this was, I attempted not to make any excuse, but ordering a horse to be ready for me early in the morning, I went to bed, having great strugglings in my breast.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
