In the late eighteenth century a small Shaker community travelled to America under the leadership of �Mother Ann� Lee. The American communities they founded were based on ideals of pacifism, celibacy and gender equality. The texts included in this edition come from first-hand accounts of life in the Shaker communities during the nineteenth century.
