Go behind the beards in this daring insiders look at the curious Amish subculture of Pennsylvania Dutch Country!Is the plain and simple life really so plain and simple? How do the Amish live without cars? Electricity? NFL football? The truth is, they dont. More than fifty million people have watched Lebanon Levi Stoltzfus in Discovery Channels hit show Amish Mafia, where he dispenses justice and keeps the peace among the seemingly quiet, insular Amish people of Lancaster, Pennsylvania. Now, he reveals what its really like to be Amish. Not the buggies, bonnets, and beards image the tight-knit community has portrayed for hundreds of years to the relentless curiosity of outsiders. The real-deal, day-to-day lifethe good and the badall the dirty little secrets youre not supposed to know. From Wi-Fi pleasure huts, to prostitutes, to marijuana and cocaine, youll never look at the Amish the same. It isnt easy keeping your feet planted firmly in the 1800s when the rest of the world is centuries ahead. Not even for the most God-fearing among us. The Amish have their own unique way of doing everything, and the lengths they will go to indulge in modern conveniencesand hide their indiscretionswill shock you. What have you been dying to know? How about what really happens when someone is shunned? Or whether the Amish pay taxes? Do they ever try to pass as English (in other words, non-Amish)? How rampant is illicit sex in such a repressed society? Can individuals make themselves stand out despite the strict rules? Why would the Amish take such risks when the punishment is eternal damnation? Lebanon Levi blows the top off the buggy with this scandalous insiders expos, proving that even the Amish dont always practice what they preach.
