In this 128 page book, Steve Friesen tells the story of the Hans Herr House located in an area known as "Conestoga" in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania.

To this day, the house remains an integral part of not only Lancaster County history, but that of the settlement by Mennonites nearly 300 years ago. Includes several black and white photos, illustrations and a few color photos as well.
