George Fox (1624-91), founder of The Religious Society of Friends (or Quakers), was well known during his lifetime as a healer and worker of miracles. He wrote prolifically of how he used God's power to effect over one hundred and fifty cures, of both physical disease or injury and mental or psychological problems. This work was critical to spreading the word about Quakerism in its early years. Many of Fox's papers were lost after his death, but from the clues and fragments that remained, and a contemporary index of his works, Henry Cadbury (1883-1974) was able to create this book, published in 1948. The preface make clear that this was not intended as a work of critical analysis, though the findings are annotated with historical and documentary detail. The editor's devotion to his task is testament to the historical and spiritual significance of Fox's contribution to Quakerism.

This small book, Have Salt in Yourself, provides both new and veteran Christians great good counsel, so that they may grow strong in grace. Its advice comes from George Fox, whose spirit directed ministry from 1640 and 1691 led to the founding of Religious Society of Friends [of Christ], better known as Quakers. The book's subtitle, A Book of QuakerPsalms for Those Called to Holiness and Chastity, emphasizes that our work as followers of Jesus Christ, is not only to be born into New Life, but to grow in holiness and chaste love, in purity of mind, body, and soul.

"A mystic is one who has had the experience that the divine Ultimate and the essence of the individual Self are fundamentally one and the same."In his maturity George Fox dictated a vivid account of his profound mystical experience, which transformed him from an unhappy questing youth into a charismatic spiritual giant. Unlike some other mystics he resolved to share his experience with others. This became his life's work, and resulted in establishing the community known today as the Religious Society of Friends or Quakers. He did this by travelling widely, addressing crowds, and by an amazing output of documents.Hugh McGregor Ross made an intensive study of these documents in the majestic Quaker Library in London. He there identified that Fox's record of his spiritual awakening, which involved what in the seventeenth century was regarded as a blasphemy, had been tampered with. Here it is restored to its original form. It is followed by a great number of the documents Fox created to guide and support his followers, all given in his own words but edited sensitively for the modern reader.This is a unique record of the awakening of a mystic in the Christian tradition, and of living out that experience in his way of life.
