The Parting Paperback - 2007

by Beverly Lewis

Lewis returns to Lancaster County for a powerful new series based on actual historical events--a heated debate over salvation and tractors--that causes a group of Amish families to break away from the Old Order. Two young people, Nellie and Caleb, are caught in the heartbreaking divide.


From the publisher

Nearly 100 days since the death of her sister, Nellie Mae Fisher dares again to dream of a future with handsome Caleb Yoder. But there are those who would keep the young couple apart, including Caleb's father. Meanwhile, a rift between modernizers and the Old Order is threatening Honeybrook's Amish community.

From the rear cover

The People themselves dare to challenge the Old Ways of their heritage...and each patriarch must choose a side.

Nearly one hundred days have passed since the untimely death of Nellie Mae Fisher's beloved younger sister, Suzy, and Nellie dares again to dream of a future with handsome Caleb Yoder. But with rumors about Suzy still flying among the People, there are those who would keep the young courting couple apart...including Caleb's own father.

Meanwhile, a growing number of Honeybrook's Amish farmers are demanding tractors and other forbidden modern conveniences. When a revival adds to the tensions, passions flare. With the Old Order community pushed to the breaking point, Nellie and Caleb find their families--and themselves--in the midst of what threatens to become an impossible divide.
