The Story of the Shakers: The Facts About the Most Fantastic Church in America by Louis K. Henderson is a comprehensive account of the history, beliefs, and practices of the Shakers, a religious group that emerged in the United States in the late 18th century. The book explores the origins of the Shakers, their unique theology, and their distinctive lifestyle, which emphasized communal living, celibacy, and simplicity. Henderson delves into the Shakers' contributions to American culture, including their innovative approach to agriculture, architecture, and furniture design. He also examines the challenges faced by the Shakers over the years, including declining membership and changing social attitudes. Drawing on extensive research and primary sources, The Story of the Shakers offers a fascinating glimpse into one of the most intriguing and enigmatic religious movements in American history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
