Crossing over: One Woman's Exodus from Amish Life

The compelling account of a woman who left an Amish community & the Amish faith to marry the man she loved, a man on the outside. Crossing Over describes how leaving the close-knit community means leaving the faith---and that is perhaps the most serious offense one can commit among the Amish. For Irene Garrett, the decision to leave caused complete estrangement from family & friends. This is the story of her courage, love & faith since embarking on a new life.Garrett, Ruth Irene is the author of 'Crossing over: One Woman's Exodus from Amish Life' with ISBN 9780883474723 and ISBN 0883474727.
