Reading Barclay of Ury | Alexandria
Read Barclay of Ury by John Greenleaf Whittier. Redefining courage, Barclay's tale confronts how true strength lies in radical non-violence - a counterintuitive revelation in our force-obsessed world. Through Whittier's lens, this Quaker merchant's peaceful resistance to mob violence illuminates the raw power of principled restraint and moral conviction in an age desperate for alternatives to conflict.
