AbstractThe leading scholar of the Amish explains the lifestyle of these simple-living people through mini essays on all aspects of Amish life, from dress and spirituality to horse-and-buggy transport. Also discusses myths about the Amish, their selective use of technology, the current media attention to Rumspringa, and the tragedy at the Nickel Mines school.
