Jacob Hochstetler is a peace-loving Amish settler on the
Pennsylvania frontier when Native American warriors, goaded on by
the hostilities of the French and Indian War, attack his family one
September night in 1757. Taken captive by the warriors and grieving
for the family members just killed, Jacob finds his beliefs about
love and nonresistance severely tested.
Jacob endures a hard winter as a prisoner in an Indian
longhouse. Meanwhile, some members of his congregation the first
Amish settlement in America move away for fear of further
attacks.
Based on actual events, Jacob's Choice describes how one man's
commitment to pacifism leads to a season of captivity, a
complicated romance, an unrelenting search for missing family
members, and an astounding act of forgiveness and
reconciliation.
