Around Nappanee Amy Wenger

The more things change, the more they stay the same may be the unspoken motto of the simple but bountiful area that is rural Elkhart County. Long admired for its balance between active progression and an appreciation for the past, the area has been shaped by the history, harmony, and diversity of its residents. Each of the seven communities profiled in Around Nappanee carries its own sense of loyalty and tradition that is truly a source of hometown pride. This book will introduce readers to the heartlands of Nappanee, Wakarusa, New Paris, Foraker, Locke, Southwest, and Jimtown-all of which can be found among western and southern Elkhart County's peaceful plains and lush farmlands.
