About This Item
Intercourse PA: Good Books, 1996 Book. As New. Soft cover. 1st US Edition.. "The Old Order Mennonites are less well known than the Amish, but are similar in many beliefs and practices. Some Old Order Mennonites drive horses and buggies. Others use cars for transportation. Conservative Mennonite groups vary a great deal, but in general espouse strong faith and family life and believe that how they live should distinguish them from the larger society around them. The author details courtship and wedding practices, methods of worship, dress, transportation, and vocation. Never before has there been such an inside account of these people and their lives. The author spent years conferring and interviewing members of the various groups, trying to portray their history and their story in a fair and accurate manner." This book includes informartion on the Marcham-Waterloo communities in Canada. 252p.. illus. maps bibliography.index.
