The Backhouse Quaker Family of York Nurserymen: Including James Backhouse: 1794-1869 Botanist and Quaker Missionary Book

This book is mainly about the exciting religious journeys of James Backhouse (1794-1869) in the southern hemisphere which included his botanising along the way, with exotic seeds sent back home to his Quaker nurseryman brother Thomas. Following ten years of pioneering journeys to the scattered isolated Quaker groups in southeast Australia, notably Tasmania (then Van Diemens Land) and on to Mauritius and South Africa he returned to York to make important Quaker visits to many parts of the United Kingdom and later to isolated village communities of seekers in the Norwegian fiords.Read More
