This book explores the history of Mennonite communities in California from the late 19th century to the mid-20th century. It examines their migration patterns, driven by factors such as fertile land and health benefits, alongside their religious practices and the challenges of adapting to an increasingly urban and diverse society. The text also analyzes internal conflicts within Mennonite groups regarding issues such as pacifism, Pentecostalism, and social justice. Further topics explored are the roles of women in the church, and the evolution of Mennonite engagement with California's broader social and political landscape.
