CALL FOR BOOK-LENGTH MANUSCRIPTS ON PENNSYLVANIA GERMAN HISTORY AND CULTLURE The Pennsylvania German History and Culture Series co-published by the Pennsylvania State University Press and the Pennsylvania German Society seeks book proposals and book-length manuscripts. The series is a continuation of the Society's renowned annual volumes on Pennsylvania German heritage and includes coverage of such topics as history, religion, folklore, material and visual culture, and society. To date, ten volumes have been published in the series: * Architecture and Artifacts of the Pennsylvania Germans by Cynthia G. Falk * Heart Language by Susan Colestock Hill * Foreigners in Their Own Land by Steven M. Nolt * Horse-and-Buggy Mennonites by Donald B. Kraybill and James P. Hurd * Pennsylvania German Broadside, The by Don Yoder * Plain Women by Margaret C. Reynolds, Edited with a Foreword by Simon J. Bronner * Powwowing among the Pennsylvania Dutch by David W. Kriebel * To the Latest Posterity by Corinne and Russell Earnest * Voices of the Turtledoves by Jeff Bach * Writing the Amish by David L. Weaver-Zercher, ed. The editor is especially interested in works that interpret the Pennsylvania-German experience in areas outside of Pennsylvania, illustrated volumes on material and visual culture, contemporary ethnography and cultural history of Pennsylvania German customs and arts, the occupational and religious diversity of the Pennsylvania Germans, cultural tourism and popular culture of and about Pennsylvania Germans, and the transnational experience of settlers and their transformation into "Pennsylvania Dutch."
