And so that is the basis of our union and our life in community."" -Eldress Bertha Lindsay, from the foreword.The Shakers: Hands to Work, Hearts to God includes exquisite photography by Ken Burns, Langdon Clay and Jerome Liebling, along with archival photographs from the Shakers' own collections and a historical text by Amy Stechler Burns.
