This beautifully illustrated book gives an overview of the Amana community from its founding in Germany, first settlement in New York, and permanent dwelling in eastern Iowa. It focuses on Iowa's Amana Colonies: seven villages that are the longest lasting of America's communal groups. It gives an up-to-date account of the Amana Society's successful reorganization into separate church and business organizations. A treasure!
