We Felt Their Kindliness: An American Family's Afghan Odyssey 1949-1951

In 1949, Rebecca and Osborne Cresson and their two children moved to Afghanistan. For two years, while teaching and homemaking, they recorded the scene around them in words and pictures."This is reading which can restore the soul in a time of darkness and conflict." Daniel A. Seeger (past Director, Pendle Hill Quaker Center)"This book makes it clear that kindliness and patience are no less a part of Afghan society than the conflict and violence that so dominates the news today." David Elder (past Regional Director, American Friends Service Committee)
