A Change and a Parting: My Story of Amana

by Barbara S. Yambura

Overview

Barbara Yambura was truly an Amana Dauther, descendant of a people in whose tradition and lineage she took pride. She delighted in sharing her rich Amana experiences and the vivid memories of her youth and young womanhood.

In this personal account, she has been sensitive to the significance of this unique social experiment and sympathetic to the inevitable change destined to occur. ‘Anna’s’ story is, in truth, an authentic chronicle which will serve history for many years to come.

“This account of a typical childhood as experienced by those isolated from the outside world should be read as a piece of authentic Americana, and as Americana it is recommended.”—Library Journal
