The Hutterites of Montana
The Hutterites are a group of people who live a communal way of life. They are mosrtly located in Montana or Southern Canada. I vecame interesred in the Hutterites by watching a television show about them on National Geographic. This book was written in the 90's so it was interesting to see the likes and differences between then and now. Now trhe kids can go to public school. The girls still are not allowed to go to college. They are like the Amish in the way they are pacifists and don't allow certain things from the outside world. It is an interesting book about a group I didn't even know existed in our own country. The book is only about 140 pages long but it its filled with great photographs of these usually very private people.
