Broken Roads: Returning to My Amish Father

In this follow-up to his New York Times bestseller, Growing Up Amish, Ira Wagler gives an inside look at his family's private world as he tries to reconcile with his father despite leaving their faith. Through difficult reunions, struggles confronted, and betrayals revisited, Ira explores burning questions of faith and identity shared by millions, whether Amish or not. Readers may recognize themselves along these paths with Ira as he grapples with choices, faith, family, the past, and the future.

Ira unapologetically, but compassionately, illuminates the inner world of the Amish community through his story of life after leaving, returning to his Amish father, and how they might mend the broken roads between them before it's too late.
