If identical twins traded places... what could go wrong? Each knows nothing about the other's world. Amish girl, Emma, was raised by her grandmother and is quiet and shy, whereas the bold and confident Isobel was raised by her mother away from the Amish community. Desperately wanting to please her twin, Emma agrees to Isobel's far-fetched plan to swap places. What Emma didn't figure on was the disaster that would follow when Isobel met a certain young Amish man. Could a man come between the newly-reunited twins and destroy their relationship forever?

The matchmakers have their eyes on romance—and in this small Amish community, no one is safe. Their sights are first set on plain, independent Willow, who’s shocked when her parents try to marry her off to bachelor Samuel. But can she and Samuel evade their parents’ meddling long enough to find love on their own? Then there’s Valerie, a widow who’s never recovered from losing the man she really loved. Now at her friend’s urging, she and Ed have one last chance to find their own happiness…if they can revive the spark that once promised a lifetime of love.

Daisy is convinced she has found the man she will marry, but what does he think about it? Will the new man cause a falling out between the Amish twin sisters? Nancy, the twins' mother is up to her old matchmaking tricks. When Daisy suddenly meets a man from out of town, Nancy's plans are thrown into disarray, but she must act quickly when she notices that the other twin, Lily, is keeping bad company. Does Daisy have to choose between the man she loves and staying in the same town as her family? Will Lily see that her man is totally unsuitable? Will either of the twins ever follow their mother's advice?

Revised edition of this classic work brings the story of the Amish into the 21st century. Since its publication in 1989, The Riddle of Amish Culture has become recognized as a classic work on one of America's most distinctive religious communities. But many changes have occurred within Amish society over the past decade, from westward migrations and a greater familiarity with technology to the dramatic shift away from farming into small business which is transforming Amish culture. For this revised edition, Donald B. Kraybill has taken these recent changes into account, incorporating new demographic research and new interviews he has conducted among the Amish. In addition, he includes a new chapter describing Amish recreation and social gatherings, and he applies the concept of "social capital" to his sensitive and penetrating interpretation of how the Amish have preserved their social networks and the solidarity of their community.
