A new and refreshing look at the role decorative arts play in the
Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, Amish home is revealed in this
book. An encyclopedic collection of colorful, expected, and
unanticipated objects associated with Amish culture are showcased
in 328 color photographs distributed throughout an insightful and
informative text. Author Trish Herr explores the development and
use of the arts, design and style within the Amish home. Furniture,
quilts, rugs, samplers, boxes, glass, china and toys made by the
Amish for themselves are featured. Dr. Donald B. Kraybill,
respected author and authority on Anabaptist settlements in the
United States, introduces the subject with a concise history and
interpretation of the present day Lancaster County Amish culture.
Patricia T. Herr is an historian of antique textiles and a
veterinary doctor living in Lancaster, Pennsylvania.
