This book chronicles the life of Myrtle Fillmore, one of the founders of the Unity movement. Fillmore desired to find within the diversity of faiths an essential unity. This book is beautifully written and well researched.This is a valuable addition to the literature concerning the New Thought movement. The appendixes are almost more interesting than the main work, for they concern the interaction between Christian Science and New Thought in its early years.

From Library Journal
The Unity Movement grew out of the mental healing and New Thought movements of the late 1890s. In the 100-plus years of its existence, it has grown to only a reputed 170,000 members, but its active publishing program extends its influence to a wider audience. Even though its history spans and connects 19th-century New Thought and 20th-century New Age movements, it has often been overlooked in American religious history. This encyclopedic work by Vahle, former editor of Unity magazine and author of Torchbearer To Light the Way: The Life of Myrtle Fillmore, attempts to fill that gap and succeeds in providing a breadth, if not a depth, of information. Chapters cover the early founders (including Fillmore) and philosophies, some information on influences and parallel movements, the activities of the Unity School and auxiliary organizations, and the role of women and of African Americans. Because much of the historical record is limited to Unity publications, this account tends to be more descriptive than analytic. It provides useful fact, but Vahle does not present any critical theory or place Unity within the broader context of other religious and social movements.
