Synopsis

Olivia Newport’s acclaimed Amish historicals now under one cover!
 
Three riveting novels set in the 1910s take readers through pivotal historical events in the lives of Amish from three key communities
 
Wonderful Lonesome
In a struggling Amish settlement on the harsh Colorado plain, Abbie Weaver refuses to concede defeat to hail, drought, and coyotes. When she discovers the root of her Amish church’s spiritual divide, she must choose between a quiet love in her cherished church, passion with a man determined to leave the church, or imagining her life with neither.
 
Meek and Mild
Clara and Andrew belong to a strict Old Order Amish community in Pennsylvania, but their consciences are leading them to make progressive choices—Clara by teaching Bible stories to children and Andrew by owning a car. What choice will their friends and family have but to shun them?
 
Brightest and Best
The collapse of a one-room schoolhouse leads to state-mandated changes in the education of Ohio’s Amish children. But when the government finally approves a separate Amish school, Ella Hilty is asked to teach, and she must choose between her heart’s dream of marriage and answering the call to do what is best for her community.
 

About this title

Book Description:

Three romances weather cultural shifts in Amish history. A spiritual divide in a Colorado Amish church, the introduction of automobiles to a strict Old Order community in Pennsylvania, and government interference in schooling in Ohio are challenges facing Olivia Newport’s characters in three novels set in the 1910s.
 

About the Author:

Olivia Newport’s novels twist through time to find where faith and passions meet. Her husband and twentysomething children provide welcome distraction from the people stomping through her head on their way into her books. She chases joy in stunning Colorado at the foot of the Rockies, where daylilies grow as tall as she is.
