An extremely helpful book.
Two Kingdoms, Two Loyalties is an an extremely helpful book. Well-researched and well-written, it sheds considerable light on the American state in the twentieth century and on the nature of "conservative" Protestantism in the modern U.S.

Best book on the topic by far.
Found it to be interesting and well researched account of the changes in Mennonite social and spiritual mores over the period from WWII to Vietnam. Noted Los Angeles Mennonite scholar T. Lasorda recently opined that Bush "wasn't a hit with the Mennoknights but his prose, passion, and persuasion make this a must read for those seeking enlightenment on the topic."

Bluffton College, not to shabby, eh?
Dancing With the Kobzar is definitely the best book that I have ever read from the "Studies in the Anabaptist and Mennonite History" series. It takes the history of a small Mennonite college in NW Ohio, and actually makes it into interesting read. Not only that, but a clear thesis and structure are presented at the beginning of the work and never once does the author stray away from these. That, along with the books transitions, makes the piece flow together as if it was a New York Times bestseller. Finally, the masterpiece of the book is the index. It seems to have been put together by a genius, and allows for any scholar to find the information that he needs almost instantaneously. A must read for any BC alumni or scholars of the Mennonite religion.
