True and Inspiring Stories of the Amish Life

About this book

Most of us want a simpler life, and there's no better example of the simple life than found among the Amish. But what is it really like to be Amish?

In this delightful compilation of stories by more than 30 Amish men and women, you'll get the inside story on the daily life of Amish families. With humor, grace, and charm, these "plain" people tell their stories; bringing tears, laughter, and an occasional dose of Amish wisdom to your heart. You'll learn…

  • how the Amish love their animals
  • the joys of a community-wide barn-raising
  • the ways the Amish handle great tragedy
  • how the Amish find happiness in giving more than receiving

This unforgettable book is compiled by two men who know the Amish. Author Jerry S. Eicher was raised as an Amish boy and Nathan Miller is a member of the Old Order Amish.
