Reports the life stories of turn-of-the-century Quaker evangelist and social activist, J. Walter Malone. Drawing from two unfinished manuscripts produced by Malone in the 1920s, Oliver links historical details with the inner story of Malon's spiritual sojourn.

This book will interest students of religious, women's, and social history. Malone was the Quaker mystic, educator, businessman, and evangelist who co-founded with his wife Emma a [Quaker] Christian Workers' Training School in Cleveland, Ohio, in 1892.
