Henry Hodgkin, The Road to Pendle Hill

This pamphlet embodies, in revised form, a lecture given to the Friends Historical Association and the Friends Social Union at their joint Spring Meeting at Alloway's Creek Meetinghouse, South Jersey, on Sunday May 20, 1979. Its motive was to look at the personality of the first Director of Pendle Hill, in connection with the celebration of its 50th Anniversary in 1980. Part of the research derives from my book, Quaker Encounters: Volume 3, "Whispers of Truth"; for this book deals with the international work of the Society of Friends in which Henry T. Hodgkin was a leading figure. This material has been supplemented from the archives of Pendle Hill, through the good offices of Eleanore Mather, and from the official biography, Henry T. Hodgkin: A Memoir, by H. G. Wood, published in 1937.
