"I AM GEORGE FOX," said the fair-haired stranger. "May the Lord bless thee and awaken thee, Margaret Fell." His eyes went on searching hers. They were blue like a sailor's and of an odd shape and rather slanted. It was at this moment Margaret Fell's life took a strange and dramatic turn. For her encounter with George Fox, a virile, lust-provoking, itinerant preacher, made her feel as though a whole new life were ahead. For the first time her passion was aroused. George awakened in her a capacity for love she had never known. But was this love directed at George the man of God ... or George the man. This wonderfully rich novel is the story of the passionate, flesh-and-blood men and women who began the Quaker movement in England in the 17th century and of those who settled in Philadelphia one hundred years later...."
