SUMMARY- Everywhere you see "..." in the Table of Contents means there was a whole list of things that I was too tired to type in under that heading. If you need more information on what this book contains, contact me and I'll pull the book and look. Probably the listing of the Amish communities represented in the book would be one you'd be interested in. This book takes a fascinating deep dive into the subject of Amish quilts - Ms. Granick clearly has a deep love of the subject and a scholar's approach. If you want to bring yourself up to speed relatively quickly on this subject, I'd say this is a superb place to start.
