The Mitford Years: At Home in Mitford, A Light in the Window, and These High, Green Hills » (Boxed Set, Volumes 1-3)

If you have ever wanted to settle down in an idyllic small town and live a life focused on faith and family, Jan Karon's books are for you. Her Mitford series follows a rural town, its inhabitants and its rector with humor, sentiment and a foundation of Christian values that help characters overcome setbacks.

In Mitford, a village nestled in the hills of North Carolina, Karon depicts small-town life as it really is: completely engrossing and absolutely hilarious.

In At Home in Mitford, the Ghengis Khan of church secretaries is managing Father Tim's every move; a hostile boy is left on his doorstep; and his vivacious next-door neighbor, Cynthia, is stirring emotions he hasn't felt in years.

In A Light in the Window, Father Tim is in love and running scared. Will the village rector be able to practice what he preaches?

In These High, Green Hills, Father Tim fulfills Cynthia's conviction that, deep down, he's a man of panache and daring. Yet, no matter where else he places his affection, he's still married to Mitford.
