Descriere Amish Confidential - Stoltzfus

\nGo behind the beards in this daring insider's 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 don't. More than fifty million people have watched Lebanon Levi Stoltzfus in Discovery Channel's hit show Amish Mafia, where he dispenses justice and keeps the peace among the seemingly quiet, insular Amish people of Lancaster, Pennsylvania.

The real-deal, day-to-day life--the good and the bad--all the dirty little secrets you're not supposed to know. From Wi-Fi pleasure huts, to prostitutes, to marijuana and cocaine, you'll never look at the Amish the same. It isn't 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.
