Title: Faith's harvest
First published: 1999
Description: In 1893 hundreds of German-speaking Mennonites (many of them Russian immigrants) joined the land rush into Oklahoma's Cherokee Outlet. Entering from Kansas, they claimed 160-acre parcels and established a life-style of work, thrift, and self-denial to separate themselves from worldly society. Sharon Hartin Iorio chronicles the transition of these people and their descendants into mainstream America.
