From the quaint village of Katharinendorf, nestled in the foothills of the Carpathian Mountains, comes the story of a young girl whose adventures lead her beyond her wildest dreams. A country barren, rugged and even cruel awaits her and her tenacious family on their quest for a better future. Follow the true story of Maria from her childhood home nestled in the Austrian Province of Bukovina to her new home on the Canadian prairies as she recounts anecdotes from her childhood to her golden years: The hardships and excitement of immigrating to a new country in the late 1800's; meeting and marrying the love of her life; the challenges of homesteading; the joys of raising her family; and helping children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren grow and flourish in the faith of her God who continually sustained her. Originally printed in 1976 with limited copies, this third print of Maria's endearing story is now available for all to read and enjoy.
