About This Item
Hanover, NH: Univ Press of New England, 1988. First Edition, 2nd Printing . Soft cover. Near Fine/None as Issued. Text/BRAND NEW. Illustrated soft cover/NF. Small PO stamp (star shaped) to lower text edge. Social history of the Shakers, or, The United Society of Believers in Christ's Second Coming. An offshoot of the Quakers first formed c. 1750 in England. Dedicated to austere living, its adherents live in celibate mixed communities. Know for ritualistic whirling and shaking, and much admired for skilled craftsmanship and elegant functionalism in wood furniture. Adherence to celibracy renders membership dependent on recruitment from society at large.
