Seller's Description:
Very Good. GREAT BOOK! FIRST EDITION. MILD SHELF WEAR & CLEAR TAPE ALONG EDGES OF RED COVER. A FEW LIBRARY STAMPS BUT NO MARKING IN TEXT. Description: In 1776, Shaker leader Mother Ann Lee immigrated to New York and established the first Shaker community at Watervliet. Before the Civil War, 6000 Shakers populated communities around the United States. Murray ( Norman Rockwell's "Four Freedoms, " among others) has written a guidebook to the 25 past and present Shaker communities. Noted for their life tenant of celibacy and the motto "live in the world but not of the world, " Shakers have captured modern-day interest in their architecture, furniture, crafts, music, cooking, and arts. The book begins with a description of Sabbathday Lake, Maine, home of the eight remaining Shakers. Each chapter contains the history of a site, tourist information including notable places to visit that have information on that particular Shaker community, old and recent photographs and illustrations, and maps. This book is a solid addition to travel, history, and religion collections. --Janine Reid, Jefferson Cty. P.L., Lakewood, Col.
