The book details Lamson's two-year experience living among the Shakers, a religious sect known for their communal lifestyle and unique customs. Lamson provides a comprehensive account of the Shakers' way of life, including their religious beliefs, daily routines, and social practices. He describes their strict adherence to celibacy, their communal living arrangements, and their unique forms of worship, such as their ecstatic dancing and singing. The book also delves into the Shakers' economic practices, including their successful farming and manufacturing operations. Lamson provides insight into the Shakers' business practices, including their use of patents and trademarks to protect their inventions and products. Throughout the book, Lamson portrays the Shakers as a peaceful and harmonious community, committed to living a simple and virtuous life. He also highlights the challenges and criticisms faced by the Shakers, particularly in regards to their unconventional beliefs and practices. Overall, ''Two Years' Experience Among The Shakers'' is a fascinating account of a unique religious community, offering insight into their beliefs, practices, and way of life during the mid-19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
