| Publisher Description: Armin Saeger eloquently tells his grandchildren what it was like to grow up in the late 1800s and early 1900s in the small German-American farming community of Friedens, Missouri, near St. Charles. He describes the daily lives of his immediate family and other interesting "characters" that figure prominently in his youth. Armin's father taught in the one-room school for a record-setting tenure, and his grandfather was the church's minister; they were intricately connected with everyone who lived in Friedens. The book has great family significance as well as historical and regional merit, as it preserves in wondrous detail this bygone era and the unique setting of Armin's childhood memories. |
