Opis

In One Furrow at a Time, the author recounts the German Saxon immigration to East Perry County, Missouri, in straightforward terms. Approachable and clear-cut, this book is a history that can be enjoyed by lay people and historians alike. The story of the Saxons of Perry County is important to the developing history of Lutheranism in America, as well as for the self-understanding of the Lutheran Church--Missouri Synod. The author tells the story of the struggles, sacrifices, and triumphs of these hardy Lutheran immigrants (both lay and clergy) and he does so with a fresh perspective that will reward the reader with new insights and deeper understanding. The author uses never before quoted historical information.
