Synopsis

In the rugged coastal towns of nineteenth-century Norway, a quiet spiritual revolution began with the arrival of an American Quaker minister, Lindley Murray Hoag. One man listened and obeyed. Through what many recognised as remarkable providential leadings, Hoag's journey opened a new chapter in Norwegian religious history and helped shape a lasting Scandinavian Quaker movement. A Remarkable Chapter in Quaker History and a Providential Guidance of Lindley Murray Hoag in Norway by Johan Marcussen stands at the crossroads of Christian biography classic and 19th century religious memoir. As a Quaker history book it charts Quaker missions in Norway, accounts of conversion and religious revival, and the early shaping of the Society of Friends in 19th century Norway. It is a rich resource for Quaker researchers, church history students and all who care about Norwegian religious history, the tensions of conscience in established churches, and the wider currents of dissenting faith in Europe. For spiritually curious readers, it offers memorable providential guidance stories that explore how ordinary people discern calling, courage and obedience. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions. Restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure, this carefully prepared edition returns a foundational account of the Scandinavian Quaker movement to the shelves of readers, libraries and serious collectors alike.
