Customer Reviews

Short, but colorful, a nice introduction

This wonderful little book is a very nice introduction to the United Society of Believers in Christ's Second Appearing, the Shakers. Chockfull of bright, colorful pictures, it gives the young reader a glimpse into everyday Shaker life and worship. As you might expect from such a short book (only 26 pages with any sort of text on them) it is nothing more than an introduction. But, with all of the wonderful pictures, it is a nice introduction for readers of any age.
