Synopsis "The Crucible of Ferment: New York's "Psychic Highway" (in English)"

This book highlights the religious fervor and social activism that occurred during the nineteenth century across a narrow band of New York State from south of Buffalo to Albany. This region was the crucible for an active ferment that had its origin in the social, religious, and economic activity in the State. The haunting question is "why here?" Seven new religions, sects, and utopian communities were established along this narrow band of New York State, including Mormonismand Spiritualism. (Emerson Klees)
