Peter Bargen was just seven-years-old when he and his family narrowly escaped the Russian Gulag and almost certain death. The rest of his relatives were not so fortunate. In the former USSR during Joseph Stalin's reign (1929-53), between 45 and 60-million people, among them thousands of Mennonites, perished through enforced exile, execution, famine and disease. Now, in a story that crosses continents and binds together generations, the discovery of a cache of rare and long-forgotten letters reveals the terrifying details of the Bargen family's fate. http://www.throughtheredgate.ca/
