A group of Austrian German-speaking people arrived in Alberta at the early stages of the 20th Century with what little they could carry. The book is a collection of adventure stories, pioneering, discovery, and memories of long ago. Covering the initial experiences that shaped the lives of immigrant people and how they made their way in a new land of western Canada. The book colourfully captures the endurances, sense of community, the outrageous suffering, and the contagious optimism of these newcomers. This outstanding book also traces the founding history of the Evangelical and Reformed Church and the frontier life and history of a spiritually tight-knit community that still lives on under a new banner.
