O knihe
Satterthwaite: From a Clearing in the Forest to a Family of the World, is the story of a family and the communities of which it was a part. The family experienced successes and losses, it was persecuted for its valor and for its religious convictions. Many died in famines and plagues. Each time when an outside observer might have concluded that the family could not survive, its members found a way. From a treacherous voyage to escape an angry king in Scandinavia in a small boat, a group of committed people sought a new beginning in Ireland and then England. There they helped build the world's most powerful nation. Then religious persecution led a later generation to seek freedom to worship and live in peace in the colonies of North America. Along with other Quakers they settled New Jersey, and eventually some turned south to North Carolina. Opportunity and adversity dogged them along the way, but through it all they helped make their societies better and stronger places to live. Today Satterthwaites have contributed to the creation of a better world. Theirs is the story of every family. This is their story.
