The Essential Dale Suderman Reader

History & Biography

“Daniel Born has assembled an intriguing and varied collection of texts that allows access to an astute and candid observer of history and culture. Dale Suderman’s writings present, and then undercut, an easy reading of his world, highlighting the primacy of the observer—in this case a nomadic, questioning, and evolving Mennonite Kansas farm boy—as he attempts to make sense of inscrutable political, theological, and cultural realities. This ‘most subjective reminiscence’ is certainly worthy of attention.”
