Presenting a recent release in the field of Anabaptist family studies--

This volume spans the 500 years since the Radical Reformation, tracing fifteen generations of one family in the Swiss-Anabaptist Waber-Weber-Weaver lineage.

Rich with photographs, historical narrative, and intimate story, A Weaver's Source Book celebrates homespun family, earth-shaped faith, and human connections. Readers will find riveting reading in a beautiful lay-out design, whether or not they claim connection to this specific family line.

 
Family histories have come a long way in the past few years. This book is a prime example of how to produce a complete genealogical record while including sufficient anecdotal material to keep family members from nodding off during obligatory readings . . . Weavers in that line can be proud.
