The orchard [large print] / Beverly Lewis.

Summary:

"When Evan Hostetler's draft number is called up in the lottery for the Vietnam Was, the family is shocked to learn he has not sought conscientious objector status, despite their Old Order Amish belief in non-resistance. As Evan departs for boot camp, his twin sister, Ellie, confides her disappointment to Sol Bontrager, the brother of her best friend and cousin to her new beau, Menno. Despite Ellie's attraction to Menno, she finds herself drawn to Sol's steady presence. Suddenly, it feels as if everything in Ellie's world is shifting, and the plans she held so dear seem increasingly uncertain. Can she and her family find the courage to face a future unlike any they could have imagined?"-- Back Cover.
