Book SHAKER STYLE, Author Michael Horsham

In our modern world where we often have to remind ourselves to KISS (“Keep it simple stupid!”), SHAKER STYLE celebrates in imagery and text the simplicity, solidity and beauty of Shaker craftsmanship in building structures and practical furnishings. Author also acquaints and enriches the reader with the lifestyle and beliefs of this spiritually minded fellowship of believers and their various communities throughout America. This group were celibate and faith focused but of course that meant the communities had no next generation to pass the baton of life unto. A hauntingly enchanting art book!
