The Allure of Immortality: An American Cult, a Florida Swamp, and a Renegade Prophet
Lyn Millner
For five days in December 1908 the body of Cyrus Teed lay in a bathtub at a beach house just south of Fort Myers, Florida. His followers, the Koreshans, waited for signs that he was coming back to life. Teed was "illuminated," a charismatic and controversial guru. The Allure of Immortality, weaves the many bizarre strands of Teed's life and those of his followers into a riveting story.
