A 'must' for any collection strong in either Amish history and culture or regional American community sociology.,
By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Growing Up Amish: The Teenage Years (Young Center Books in Anabaptist and Pietist Studies) (Hardcover)
The Amish way is a lifetime commitment to the faith as well as a way of life: nearly 90 percent of those who grow up Amish choose the Amish way. Here is an in-depth study of Amish adolescence which considers its religion, society, and rituals which reinforce the statistics surrounding this chosen way of life. A dozen years of research in over seventy Amish communities in fifteen states lends to this study, which reveals how the Amish identity is fostered by an entire community of behavior and values. A 'must' for any collection strong in either Amish history and culture or regional American community sociology.
