Becoming Amish: A family's search for faith, community and purpose

Tricia wore the Amish bonnet. The reader visits a "plain" community in the hills of Kentucky--a community that lives even more simply than most Amish--to discuss "the whys" of a low-technology life and faith. The reader contemplates an interview with the lutheran minister who helped lead the Supreme Court case back in 1972 that allowed the Amish to pull their children from public school after 8th grade--what compelled him to do that? The Mosers' journey is a tale that deserves to live on, a rich and provocative version of the American dream.
