Pleasant Hill and its Shakers

The Shakers at Pleasant Hill had a vital impact for more than six decades on the development of Kentucky. Settling in central Kentucky in 1805 to establish a religious communal village, they brought a standard of excellence and innovation that reached far beyond their group. The book's author, Dr. Thomas D. Clark -- often referred to as Kentucky's greatest historian/writer -- narrated the story of these fascinating people with knowledge, warmth, humor and dramatic animation.
