The Riddle of Amish Culture

The Riddle of Amish Culture has become a classic work on one of America's most distinctive religious communities. But many changes have occurred within Amish society over the past decade, from westward migrations and greater familiarity with technology to the dramatic shift away from farming into small business which is transforming Amish culture. For this revised edition, Donald B. Kraybill has taken these recent changes into account, incorporating new demographic research and interviews and adding a chapter describing Amish recreation and social gatherings. 386 pages authored by Donald B. Kraybill, professor of sociology and Anabaptist studies at Messiah College.
