Thomas Shillitoe: Shoemaker and Minister is a biographical work written by Frances Anne Budge in 1892. The book tells the story of Thomas Shillitoe, a shoemaker from London who became a prominent Quaker minister in the late 18th and early 19th centuries. The author draws on Shillitoe’s own writings and personal accounts from those who knew him to paint a vivid picture of his life and ministry. The book covers Shillitoe’s early years as an apprentice shoemaker, his conversion to Quakerism, and his travels throughout England and Europe as a minister. Budge also explores Shillitoe’s role in the abolitionist movement and his advocacy for prison reform. The book provides a fascinating insight into the life of a remarkable man who dedicated his life to the service of others.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
