As America is thrust into utter chaos with no apparent end in sight from all the destruction brought about by its angry and uncontrollable youth, Jacob Berkemeier reflects on his Amish upbringing, and how it helped shape him the way it did. It wasn't a picnic by any stretch of the imagination, but it had its benefits through the rigid structure it provided. Follow along as Jacob recounts tales of his childhood, and how his brothers would stop at nothing to win. Whether it was horse racing, playing pranks on dad, or competing on the ice, it was in the Berkemeier blood to win. As winter comes to an end, there is a rivalry on the ice that hasn't yet been settled, and the Berkemeier brothers find themselves on thin ice for one last game to decide who the winner is. Will it be the west, the side of the hot-blooded Berkemeiers, or the east, the side of those pesky Frys? And will the ice be strong enough to hold them for one last hoorah? Only time will tell. Follow along as Jeremy Burkholder uses stories from his Amish childhood to bring to you a novel that will make you laugh and cry at the same time as he weaves multiple tales into an ending that will show you something the Amish community has that the world is in desperate need of today.
