This comprehensive reference documents the full scope of furniture

Furniture produced throughout the nineteenth and early twentieth
centuries, ranging from free-standing tables, chairs, desks, boxes,
and case clocks to built-in cupboards and cases of drawers, is
shown in over 1,000 images, 698 in color. An extensive text
provides a detailed account of Shaker history, culture, and
religion. Further, it examines Shaker design and tools, reporting
new research on the Shaker color palette. Using primary source
materials, this book examines designs from specific Shaker
communities and individual cabinetmakers. Endnotes, bibliography,
glossaries, and technical terms make this beautiful reference
required reading for everyone with an interest in Shaker design and
culture.
