I learned so much about the Mennonite struggle in Russia prior to WW1 by reading this book. So many things I never knew. We used this book in our study of imigration. A great telling of how so many Mennonite families came to the USA to flee persicution. Told through the eyes of a young boy.

As the great-granddaughter of Mennonites who immigrated from the region that was mention in the book, I found it particularly insightful to a way of life and an area that I have only some things about. While I never can imagine going through the horror that these Mennonite families in the southern Ukraine went through, the book brings insights into a world that I have only heard about. While I haven't read the book for a number of years, I still recall finding enjoyment in reading about the events surrounding the years of the Russian Revolution and the Mennonites that fled for Canada in the 1920s.
