Fair, Clear, and Terrible: The Story of Shiloh Maine

At the turn of the century, a young man named Frank Weston Sandford founded a movement called Shiloh in Durham, Maine. The movement's purpose was to prepare the world for The Second Coming. The enactment of this mission spanned 25 yrs. involving hundreds of people. Sandford, an appealing and volatile leader, ereted an extraordinary complex of buildings in Durham, opened stations in major American cities, then set sail on the high seas in a racing schooner with a select group of followers. Their intention was to circle the globe for Christ. Instead, they headed for doom.
