Description
This is the first book-length study of James Pierrepont Greaves, the mystic, idealist, and sacred socialist. It explores the effects of his teaching on his very disparate followers and particularly on the community, Alcott House, he established. The bookOs chapters on Sophia Chichester, the ultraradical supporter of Greaves, will be of particular interest to feminists.
