"Mennonites in Russia? Invited by Catherine the Great to farm the Russian
steppes - in exchange for exemption from military service - Mennonite emigrants
from Polish Prussia and the Netherlands made their home in Russia. Some remain
today; many more eventually left for North and South Americas and Europe.
Nearly all retain memories and stories from that place - unbelievable
prosperity for some; unspeakable terror for many; church tensions; struggles
between the landed and the landless; exquisite clockmaking, storytelling,
music-making, and food. Kroeker tells it all with vibrancy - the overview and
the memorable details. Includes dozens of historic and contemporary
photographs." --back cover
