“In many ways, one could argue that the substance of Wellenreuther’s fine study points in the opposite direction, underscoring the profoundly syncretic nature of the culture of the Pennsylvania Dutch and even also the ways in which they practiced their faith. Rather than being ‘citizens in a strange land,’ they were rooted in a very familiar place that they themselves helped make.”
—Mark Louden,
