Though
Mountains Fall by Dale Cramer

Though
Mountains Fall is the 3rd in the Daughters of Caleb Bender
series. I hope it's not the last!
Though
Mountains Fall is the continuing story of an Amish community who
pulled up all roots from Ohio, and moved to a drastically different
environment in Paradise Valley, Mexico.
Caleb
Bender and his family were the first pioneers in Paradise Valley, and
through this series, I have followed the stories of his daughters,
Emma, Miriam, and Rachel as they grow and develop in their romances
with and marriages to their beaus. This story focuses mainly on
Miriam's decision to accept Domingo - a Catholic Mexican man's -
proposal of marriage.
Domingo
has worked for Caleb for over a year, and has proven himself
trustworthy and loyal, as well as a stable, loving man to Miriam.
But if Miriam is serious about marrying him, she is sure to be
shunned, and will lose the other relationships she hold so dear, the
ones with her family.
As
Miriam and Domingo make the biggest decision of their lives, Rachel
declares to her sister, " No matter what, we'll always be
sisters".
Will
this statement be challenged in the trying times ahead?
And
what about the army sent to help protect the Amish community from the
bandits? Are they a blessing or a curse?
This
book is an enjoyable 3rd edition to what I hope will be a continuing
saga of Caleb Bender's daughters. I've thouroughly enjoyed reading
Dale Cramer's Amish Fiction, and can't wait to read another of his
books in the future, hopefully soon!
PS.
