Description :
Among America's more interesting new religious movements, the Shakers and
the Mormons came to be thought of as separate and distinct from mainstream
Protestantism. Using archives and historical materials from the 19th century,
Stephen C. Taysom shows how these groups actively maintained boundaries
and created their own thriving, but insular communities. Taysom discovers a
core of innovation deployed by both the Shakers and the Mormons through
which they embraced their status as outsiders. Their marginalization was
critical to their initial success. As he skillfully negotiates the differences
between Shakers and Mormons, Taysom illuminates the characteristics which
set these groups apart and helped them to become true religious dissenters.
