Ann Lee's transformation from illiterate Mancunian blacksmith's daughter to soveriegn pontiff of a thriving New England sect is one of the more bizarre and fascinating byways of Anglo-American history. These heady days of Shakerism are unlikely to be better depicted than in this book, with its meticulously researched account of the heroic, indomitable, mesmerising, chastity-obsessed and ultimately rather ghastly woman. .
