"This collection of thirty-four full-page drawings expresses with great sincerity the vitality and spirit of the Pennsylvania Dutch people. Each drawing gives the reader a fascinating insight into a custom or tradition that has been handed down for generations and each is accompanied by a pleasantly descriptive text as well as by a series of vignettes which present further details concerning farm implements, household furnishings, clothes, food, handicrafts, and amusements."
