Samenvatting
This book is a unique document on the Hutterites of Montana, based on Laura Wilson's photographs and her interviews over a fourteen-year period. Wilson explains how she met the Hutterites and received unprecedented access to photograph them in their day-to-day life. Then, often using the words of members of their community, she reveals fascinating details about their history, their leadership structure, their religious beliefs, the place of women in their society, the education of their young, and the strength of their communal tradition. Wilson's text and photographs bring to life a remarkable people whose close-knit family ties, spiritual activities, and sure sense of place contrast dramatically with the values and preoccupations of our own rootless society.
