More gentle matters are covered by Keith Bowen with skill and grace in Among the Amish. He weaves vignettes drawn from his time spent among the Amish of Pennsylvania's Lancaster County, complementing his reports with his own marvelously evocative illustrations, many in full color.

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good +. Bowen, Keith (illustrator). First Edition. The farms and backroads of Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, are home to the world's oldest surviving and most densely populated Amish community. This is a society that turns its eye to God by turning away from cars, electricity, and modern technology. "Among The Amish" is a personal journal of four seasons spent living and working within this insular and very private community. With a fresh eye and an open mind, Welsh writer and artist Keith Bowen shows us the Amish at work, at prayer, and at play, relating personal experiences and anecdotes that reveal a culture as rich in contradictions as it is in tradition. This is not an "off the road" photography book, but a sensitive and revealing portrait by a gifted artist. Keith Bowen is a Welsh artist whose work has been exhibited in England's Royal Academy and in the National Portrait Gallery in London. Black cloth with white spine lettering. Oblong. xiii, 130pp. Mylar cover. Top of rear boards is heavily worn in a few places. Full refund if not satisfied. (Due, to the large size and/or weight of this book, additional shipping funds may be required.). Seller Inventory # 035657
