Most of us have heard of The Shakers, but do we really know what they are about and where they come from? We'll take a look at the history of the Shaking Quakers, from their start with Mother Ann in the 17-hundreds all the way up to modern times here in New England. Mike's guests are Darryl Thompson, a Shaker historian who has lived with the Canterbury Shakers in New Hampshire for over three decades, and Shery Hack, Director of Programs and Collections at the Canterbury Shaker Village.
