'The editors of The Outsiders' Gaze have compiled an intriguing set of documents written by "outsiders," individuals from outside the Mennonite settlements who were trying to understand this insular German-speaking horde. Some of these writers have a good understanding of Mennonite history and culture; others are wildly misinformed, sometimes bigoted. All but one of these documents were written between 1874 and 1922. On the latter date, a new stream of Mennonites, this one very different, fled Russia for Canada; thousands of these Russian refugees arrived in the Prairies just as many of the Old Colony were preparing to leave Manitoba for a more independent way of life in places such as Mexico.' - book review by Robert Martens, Mennonite Historical Society of British Columbia.
