THE FERRYMAN is a classically written story of a German Mennonite family in Siberia during the last years of the rule of Czar Nicholas and the People's Revolution. As the Bolsheviks (later called Communists) gained power these wealthy Mennonite wheat farmers had all their property confiscated and their families uprooted and scattered. The protagonist, Heinrich Gerhard, had just graduated from the University of St. Petersburg when he renounced his religion for Bolshevism. His journey through the changing politics, the war, and finally his search for personal freedom provides the narrative for this compelling novel.
