Suddenly the front bumper thudded into something large and brown directly in front of the car. Ian cringed. The impact jarred him and his bones felt shaken from their sockets as the good of the Volkswagen crumpled towards the windshield. "We've hit a horse!"Jack Turner's voice was thin and reedy. "It's a horse and buggy!" Jack Turner's reckless driving that cold, wet night was to have eventful consequences for Ian McDonald. It brought him into contact with the Amish--a gentle, peaceful people who farmed their land in the traditional way-- and made him realize the dangers and difficulties they faced. When disastrous news came for them, Ian was determined to stay to help--but his family had other plans...

Book excerpt: As America is thrust into utter chaos with no apparent end in sight from all the destruction brought about by its angry and uncontrollable youth, Jacob Berkemeier reflects on his Amish upbringing, and how it helped shape him the way it did. It wasn't a picnic by any stretch of the imagination, but it had its benefits through the rigid structure it provided. Follow along as Jacob recounts tales of his childhood, and how his brothers would stop at nothing to win. Whether it was horse racing, playing pranks on dad, or competing on the ice, it was in the Berkemeier blood to win. As winter comes to an end, there is a rivalry on the ice that hasn't yet been settled, and the Berkemeier brothers find themselves on thin ice for one last game to decide who the winner is. Will it be the west, the side of the hot-blooded Berkemeiers, or the east, the side of those pesky Frys? And will the ice be strong enough to hold them for one last hoorah? Only time will tell.

Book Synopsis An Amish Paradox by : Charles E. Hurst
Download or read book An Amish Paradox written by Charles E. Hurst and published by JHU Press. This book was released on 2010-04-05 with total page 377 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner, 2011 Dale Brown Book Award for Outstanding Scholarship in Anabaptist and Pietist Studies. Young Center for Anabaptist and Pietist Studies at Elizabethtown College Holmes County, Ohio, is home to the largest and most diverse Amish community in the world. Yet, surprisingly, it remains relatively unknown compared to its famous cousin in Lancaster, Pennsylvania. Charles E. Hurst and David L. McConnell conducted seven years of fieldwork, including interviews with over 200 residents, to understand the dynamism that drives social change and schism within the settlement, where Amish enterprises and nonfarming employment have prospered. The authors contend that the Holmes County Amish are experiencing an unprecedented and complex process of change as their increasing entanglement with the non-Amish market causes them to rethink their religious convictions, family practices, educational choices, occupational shifts, and health care options. The authors challenge the popular image of the Amish as a homogeneous, static, insulated society, showing how the Amish balance tensions between individual needs and community values. They find that self-made millionaires work alongside struggling dairy farmers; successful female entrepreneurs live next door to stay-at-home mothers; and teenagers both embrace and reject the coming-of-age ritual, rumspringa. An Amish Paradox captures the complexity and creativity of the Holmes County Amish, dispelling the image of the Amish as a vestige of a bygone era and showing how they reinterpret tradition as modernity encroaches on their distinct way of life.

In comparison to Trevor, Reuben seems downright boring. Trevor shares Rose's sense of fun and adventure, and her easygoing disposition. When her sister Lila's buggy is rear-ended and Lila is horribly injured, Rose finds herself with more freedom than she's ever experienced. Everyone is so concerned about Lila that no one realizes Rose is sneaking out with Trevor. Except for Reuben.

Part of her relishes the freedom she's found with Trevor, but the other part of her wishes Reuben would "fight" for her, as much as any Amish man would. Too late, she realizes the foolish choice she's made. Has she ruined her best chance at love, or is there another path to happiness she just hasn't seen yet?
