Restless Souls: The Making of American Spirituality

Yoga classes and Zen meditation, New-Age retreats and nature mysticismâ€”all are part of an ongoing religious experimentation that has surprisingly deep roots in American history. Tracing out the countryâ€™s Transcendentalist and cosmopolitan religious impulses over the last two centuries, Restless Souls explores Americaâ€™s abiding romance with spirituality as religionâ€™s better half. Now in its second edition, including a new preface, Leigh Eric Schmidt's fascinating book provides a rich account of how this open-road spirituality developed in American culture in the first place as well as a sweeping survey of the liberal religious movements that touted it and ensured its continued vitality.
