The Amana Colonies consists of seven villages surrounded by 26,000 acres of farmland, timber, and river bottom. The Amana Landscape is the first of its kind: a photographic book that shows the natural beauty of the area.

In this book, David B. Heusinkveld presents more than one hundred beautiful color photos of that landscape, including the Lily Lake, Mill Race, tail race, fields, forests, and hills.

The book includes essays on the Amana history by historian and Amana resident Peter Hoehnle. David was a special education teacher until injured in a car accident ten years ago, when he turned to photography.
