Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, is famous around the world as "Amish Country," home to this persistent religious sect that still farms with horses, dresses plainly, and speaks their own German dialect. Today the Amish are at the center of conflict between land speculation and land stewardship, between material wealth and moral worth.
After the Fire is the moving account of Randy-Michael Testa's experiences--at once a stirring narrative of one man's moral journey and a disturbing chronicle of the Amish struggle to survive against the encroachment of today's world.
