This book grew out of Ervin R. Stutzman's loving desire to know his father, an Amish entrepreneur. The quest was daunting, since Tobias died in a car accident when Ervin was three. Through interviewing family members and other people in the communities where the family had lived, Ervin paints this fictionalized but true story of Tobias J. Stutzman. In the search process, he also learned about his faith heritage and about himself.
