I heard my people cry: one family's escape from Russia : The true story of Lise Huebert Toews Gerig. Foreword by Nancy K. Splain. Victoria, B.C.: Trafford Publishing, 2003, 2d printing, January 2003, and with printing number line ending in 6, xii, 244pp., . "Born in the village of Tchongraw in 1930 in the southern Crimea, Lise spends her childhood under the spell of the mysterious, ancient Krymskiye Gory mountains of the Black Sea. Her Dutch-German people have been trapped in Russia for generations and Lise brings their story with her to freedom. Love of family, faith and determination bonds two uncles and 120 women and children of Lise's people into a spiritual force that empowers them to escape Russia with the help of German soldiers. Chased by the Red Army forces that explode out of Warsaw, Lise's mother saves her children in an extraordinary race for freedom. Her mother emerges as a heroic figure who could have stepped from the pages of a Tolstoy classic. This is also the story of childhood sweethearts who reunite in freedom in 1949.". 9781553958284 ISBN 1553958284.
