Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Concise Biographical Sketch of William Penn The following is a brief sketch of the life of one who, though perhaps more widely known as the Proprietor and Founder of Pennsylvania, was also eminent as a minister of the gospel in the Society of Friends, and distinguished for his superior intellectual abilities, his varied culture, and, above all, for his devoted Christian character, exemplified both in adversity and prosperity. It is taken principally from a work entitled "Friends in the Seventeenth Century." He was the son of William Penn, who, trained to nautical life, had by his genius and courage risen rapidly in the navy, until at the age of twenty-nine lie became "Vice-Admiral of the Straits." From the account of his life and public career, given by Granville Penn, a descendant, ho appears to have been a man who made self-interest a leading principle of conduct, but who, while eagerly coveting wealth and honor, was never accused of being corrupt as a public servant. His son William was born in London, in 1044, and resided with his mother at Wanstcad, in Essex, while his father was absent with the fleet over which he had command.

Download or read book William Penn written by Mary Maples Dunn and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2015-12-08 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a concise, fluently presented examination of the relation between William Penn's religious convictions and his political behavior, from his years as an active young convert to the Quaker cause to his later years as governor of Pennsylvania. Although not a full biographical treatment of William Penn, the study presents new insights into Penn’s life because it is based on many ignored but important pamphlets that Penn wrote. The young William Penn took a leading role in the Quaker fight for the right of free assembly, the right of free speech, and freedom of conscience. However, when faced with governing a booming colony, these very principles and convictions had to be modified in order to maintain his and the Friends’ control of Pennsylvania.
