Customer Reviews

It's good enough.

"Who are the Amish?" is a good introductory book to those learning about the Amish. While this is classified as an adult book, I found its writing style and book layout to resemble that of a juvenile book. But, because of this, it's not overwhelming in its approach. Written in 1985, some Amish communities may have since changed their way of living, so if you're looking for up-to-date information, then look elsewhere. I was hoping for more information on their lives, like courtships and traditions. The pictures are far-away shorts, but in color. While this book only skims the Amish way of life, it's still interesting. I recommend.
