Cultures
| Plain Diversity is a result of a study conducted by Steve Nold and Tom Meyers on the
Old Order Amish communities in Indiana. They visited each of the Amish settlements in Indiana,
interviewed people in each place, and looked at archival and library material about each settlement. They
also visited Amish settlements in Michigan, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Ontario with ties to Indiana. This
book also looks at Amish who shop at Wal Mart, vacation in Florida and attend public schools. It is a
sequel to An Amish Patchwork also by Meyers and Nolt. Copyright 2007 John Hopkins

| Newly Revised. The Amish, one of America's most intriguing peoples, have
survived for 300 years! While much has been written on the Amish
recently, little has appeared about their history. This book brings
together for the first time in one volume a thorough history of the
Amish people. From their beginnings in Europe through their settlement
in North America, the Amish have struggled to maintain their beliefs
and traditions in often hostile settings. Atlantic crossings,
westward migration, military conscription and compulsory school laws
were just a few of the many challenges to the Amish church through the
years. Caught in the currents and conflicts of national life, the
Amish have remained a distinct people in America's melting pot.
Authoritative, thorough and interestingly written, A History of
the Amish presents the deep and rich heritage of the Amish people.
Includes a substantial bibliography for further reading and study.

| Reformers, self-styled prophets, teachers, preachers, and common folk
come alive in this fast-paced history. Through Fire and Water is
written in an accessible narrative style that gives an accurate look at
Mennonites from the 1500s to today. It includes stories, photos, maps, and
cartoons. In addition, brief essays invite reflection. "This is a useful
volume not only for Mennonites but also for those seeking a better understanding
of the roots of the historic peace churches."--Steve Schroeder, Booklist

department at the Univeristy of Winnipeg; Steve Nolt, a doctoral student at
the University of Notre Dame; Carol Duerksen, a freelance writer and youth-
