Friedwart Bock was co-Principal of Camphill-Rudolf Steiner Schools in Aberdeen. He died in 2010.
'This new book has succeeded in weaving together a very full
picture of the strong personalities who came together. Admirably
honest. Builders of Camphill is full of humour and wonderful
stories -- a rich and inspiring read.'
-- Ian Parker, Camphill Pages, Summer 2004
'A biographical account of the founders by those who knew them with
many photos and direct quotations from the subjects themselves. An
important document.'
-- Scientific & Medical Network Review, Summer 2004
'A wonderful tapestry of a book. Each of the portraits is written
with great insight and affection. Friedwart Bock should be
wholeheartedly congratulated on bringing this project to
fruition.'
-- Jonathan Stedall, Camphill Correspondence, September 2004
'This book is a labour of love. Each chapter is written by someone
who really knows the person described. It will certainly appeal to
all those who knew the people concerned but also to those who would
like to know more about what makes the atmosphere of many Camphill
places so special.'
-- Susanne Mainzer, New View, Summer 2004
'Each chapter is written by a different person, which I found
helped to bring the people described to life. It was helpful to
read about people's weaknesses as well as their strengths. I found
I could not read this book quickly as each person's life needed
time to be absorbed and was quite filling. I was struck by the
importance of this book, for it serves as a record of the lives of
people who together created a real deed for humanity.'
-- Maria Mountain, Camphill Correspondence
