Journey to the Volga is the eighth of my novels spinning the stories of the struggles of different German families and their many descendants, as they emigrated ever farther away from the old homeland. This story begins in Dorf Oberlahnstein, northwest of Frankfurt, Germany in 1766. A Lutheran farmer, Johannes Rudolph, and his family are dealt a cruel blow by a chance of fate. All they know is ripped from them, and they must move on. But where is it that GOD wishes they live out their lives? As you move through the next 154 years, you will meet many more characters spinning out their lives. I sincerely hope you enjoy it as a fictional story; remember, this is fiction and fantasy, and not a research manual, and you should not assume it is true. Some of it is, much of it is not! Hopefully, reading it may spark questions about your ancestors. And it may help you think about GOD, from who these amazing people got their strength to overcome all obstacles. www.DarrelKaiserBooks.com
