{"product_id":"pioneer-prophetess-herbert-a-wisbey-9780801475511","title":"Pioneer Prophetess: Jemima Wilkinson, the Publick Universal Friend","description":"\u003cp\u003eAt the age of twenty-four, the Rhode Island Quaker Jemima Wilkinson (1752-1819) recovered from a bout of fever with the pronouncement that she had been directed by a vision to preach to a \"dying and sinful world.\" Announcing that Jemima had died and that her body now housed a new spirit, the Publick Universal Friend, this remarkably charismatic--and notably scandal-plagued--woman gathered several hundred followers and settled to the west of Seneca Lake. Although the religious community she founded on a framework of abstinence and friendship did not long survive her, Wilkinson remains a figure of fascination and mystery to this day. Herbert A. Wisbey Jr.'s 1964 biography is the authoritative account of her life, times, and ideals.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Herbert A.
