One does not normally associate the quietly spoken, gentle members of the Religious Society of Friends, or Quakers, with romantic flights of epic proportions. Indeed to many, "Quaker Romance" may sound like an oxymoron. Madeleine and Red are observant, sensitive, caring people working for a cause that transcends, winnows and refines their personal desires into a work of art of enduring beauty. Whether this book ever reaches the best seller lists is less important than the fact that it is available as a guide and support to the earnest seeker of a richer spiritual experience, in the world, rather than detached from the trials and challenges of everyday human existence. (David Bradwell, Ph.D, Economic Research and Consulting, December 6, 1998)
On the recent occasion of the take-off of the Discovery with John Glenn aboard, Dan Rather said something to the effect that the event gives people reason to believe there will be a future and the future will be good. For me, such reassurance is given by a book like this. As long as we can produce young people such as the Stephensons were in the 1940's there is hope for us. (Margo Kothe) -- Publisher Comments
