Containing the most important body of work of Magnum photographer Larry Towell, this book provides a portrait of the way of life of the Mennonites, a Protestant religious sect in Mexico and rural Ontario. In addition to the photographs, Towell's text tells anecdotes of his experiences. He paints a picture of the lives of the people: the harshness and poverty of their rural life, the disciplines and contradictions of their religion, their hunger for land, for work, and for the freedom to live the way they choose.
