A mix of beautiful photos with short written sections that describe Amish and Mennonite life in Holmes County, Ohio.

This book was left as reading material in a cabin my husband & I rented in Millersburg, OH (Holmes county, Amish country). It was a surprisingly fun read. Lots of information about the similarities (and differences) between Amish & Mennonite practices, some nice historical background about each group, and plenty of gorgeous photos. A nice way to end a day of hiking around Amish country!

I really think I should have been born a mennonite.
