Summary:
"The year is 1750, and the British Government is recruiting 'Foreign Protestants' to settle in the new world. The Mattern and Hess families have farmed together, and faced poverty and religious persecution together, in their small village in the German Palatinate. When they hear of the promise to live in peace and religious freedom, and own their own land, they are immediately attracted to the idea. It isn’t long before they have signed up for the long trip to Nova Scotia – much to the dismay of two of the children. Peter Hess and Katarina Mattern have been the best of friends since childhood. Now, as young adults, they have found their friendship maturing into something more. They decide to wait until their arrival in Nova Scotia to obtain permission from Katarina's parents to marry. But, in spite of the best intentions, and the most careful planning, the families are separated before their journey even begins. Each family is faced with decisions that will affect them for the rest of their lives. Go to Nova Scotia as originally planned? Head for Pennsylvania and the promise of even greater prosperity? And what about Peter and Katarina? Will they ever see each other again?"--Back cover.
