About the book

The true story of why half the people of a Hutterite Colony left their home. "Learn the rich diverse culture and social environment of a Hutterite colony in Manitoba and follow the traditions of its people. Meet the families from Hutterite Barrickman Colony and see the story unfold when it becomes overpopulated. Observe how Samuel and Sarah Hofer's family were chosen to move to the new colony named Greenwald. Immerse yourself in the true story of this Hutterite family at Greenwald Colony and watch the escalating and unbelievable conditions they endured for more than a decade by their Hutterite leaders. From their dismal, secluded environment, on a cold winter day, these 40 men, women and children spanning three generations, half the members of Greenwald Colony, with only meagre belongings, did the unimaginable. They left their culture, heritage and livelihood behind and moved into an unfamiliar and unknown world"--Page 4 of cover
