Description
Glimpse vanishing history as the lives of these Mennonite families change with the landscape they shape. Starting with the daring elopement of Annie and Jacob, at the turn of the last century. They face the elements together, but are they strong enough to withstand the very community that they rely on for support? Can they avoid repeating their parents' mistakes on their own daughter, Eva? In turn, Eva comes to terms with her own sense of groundlessness as her life and that of her own family move farther away from their roots. Her daughter, Josie, looks for her place among a more modern, a more integrated generation. Throughout the generations, their stories are woven with the prairie landscape that both nurtures them and threatens their very existence. An insight into living history. Josephine Friesen is a writer of Mennonite descent. She is retired, living in Winnipeg, Manitoba.
