Description: This is a first edition, first printing of Seeking Paradise: The Spirit of the Shakers by Thomas Merton. The book is a hardcover with edits and introduction by Paul M Pearson. It was published in 2003 by Orbis in New York. The book is a biography and autobiography on the topic of historical figures and has special attributes as a first edition. It is written in English and is not personalized or signed. The book is from North America and was manufactured in the United States. The character as Thomas Merton comes through through the many photographs. In these essays, talks, and a stunning selection of his own photographs, Thomas Merton hauntingly evokes the spirituality of a uniquely American sect. Largely remembered today for a legacy of extraordinary craftsmanship, the Shakers espoused a way of life, as Merton shows, with surprising relevance for today. In their approach to work as a form of worship, in their practice of community, their simplicity and rejection of violence, and their profound witness to the Kingdom of God, Merton finds lessons for all Christians.
