Description
The Mennonites eventually moved to Prussia, later absorbed by Frederick the Great as West Prussia, over many years. The Derksens find themselves having settled there several generations ago, but now in the mid-1770s are finding it more and more difficult to to live out their sectarian faith. One pitfall after another comes their way, both in their home and family, and in their business ventures. Children don't always agree with the harsh limitations on their lifestyle and try out the things that those around them are doing, and that causes consternation, both for the parents and for the Elder, who is intent on keeping to the old values of Menno. In the end, love covers a multitude of sins.
