Book excerpt: Featuring a new introduction, a compassionate look at a religious movement that shaped America “Put your hands to work and your hearts to God,” Mother Ann Lee told her spiritual children more than 200 years ago. Today, as the number of Shakers has dwindled to only a handful, the story of the Shakers has never been more important to record and understand.
