The Purpose of this Blog.

My wife and I were raised in Old Order Amish communities in the Midwest. We have noticed that most books about the Amish do not accurately portray the Amish we grew up with. It seems that the main reason/s might be because the authors were never a part of the Amish culture and/or were writing about the Amish of the larger communities in Pa. and Ohio. I have decided to write a book about the Amish in the smaller communities of the Midwest. So...I am starting this blogspot as a means to start putting some topics and ideas for the book in print. Perhaps someone will actually find this blog and ask questions or submit comments that will give me ideas for chapters/topics in the book. Please help me to keep this a clean, God honoring blogspot. Thank You.
