What better way to learn about the history of everyday life and ordinary people than from the inside? Diaries from turn-of-the-century rural households create a realistic picture of the Mennonites from 1863 to 1929. From the Inside Out allows us into the lives of young women, grandmothers, rural preachers and landless householders. Follow a young man on the first Mennonite ship from Russia to Manitoba and a 19-year-old girl who dreams of being a writer. Royden Loewen vividly recreates the lives of the Mennonites, from the mundane to the miraculous. | From the Inside Out by Royden Loewen, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters
