Mystics and Messiahs: Cults and New Religions in American History

This text is an account of cults and anti-cult scares in American history. The author shows that cults were by no means an invention of the 1960s and that in fact, most of the frightening images and stereotypes surrounding fringe religious movements are traceable to the mid-19th century.
