The Bulwark
New York: Doubleday & Company, 1946
Begun in the fall of 1914, The Bulwark was not completed until May 1945. It concerns the financial and moral difficulties faced by a Quaker in light of changing times. The central character is a conservative Philadelphia Quaker who fails to hold back change. The novel speaks to the ever-widening gap created by modern man's abandonment of religion and his increasing dependence on technological and materialistic standards.
