It is the year 1764 in a land far different from the Germany today,
a land ruled by feudal princes and religious zealots. The terrible
Seven Years' War is done, but the tales of religious atrocities
from the long past Thirty Years' War are still fresh in the minds
of all. No tolerance at this time; the Catholics and Protestants
openly hate each other. A young Lutheran country couple, along with
a strange new city friend, slowly travel from village Heilbronn
north to Lubeck, one step at a time towards the "Promised Land."
Sailing to, and walking across much of Russia, our couple arrives
to help build the Volga Colony of Balzer.Over the next 130 years,
they and their descendants triumph over evils and carve out a
bountiful life, before again moving on to the new "Promised Land,"
AMERICA, settling in the San Joaquin Valley near Fresno,
California. MARCH TO THE VOLGA is one in a series of historical
fiction novels, each based on a different Deutsche family in the
1760's. www.MarchToTheVolga.com
