Description
George Webber first remembers seeing the Hutterite people as a boy growing up in Drumheller, Alberta. Years later he began to visit the Hutterite colonies of western Canada, fascinated by the people whose lives appeared shrouded in mystery. Over a period spanning nearly 20 years he has recorded the lives of Hutterites with respect and affection.
