Description: Going by the Moon and the Stars tells the stories of two Russian Mennonite women who emigrated to Canada after fleeing from the Soviet Union during World War II. Based on ethnographic interviews with the author the women recount, in their own words, their memories of their wartime struggle and flight, their resettlement in Canada, and their journey into old age. Above all, they tell of the overwhelming importance of religion in their lives.

Going by the Moon and the Stars will be of great value to all those interested in the Mennonites and Mennonite history, religion, women's studies, ethnic studies, and life history.
Notes: Includes bibliographical references (p. 139-145) and index.
