Now available in Steinbach…
30 July 2008—Steinbach, Manitoba
Sam W. Reimer’s book is now available at the Mennonite Heritage Village in Steinbach, (Sam’s birthplace) thanks to arrangements by historian Lawrence Klippenstein (Sam’s uncle). The museum site “brings to life the Mennonite way of life from the 16th century to present” and is comprised of 20 furnished buildings, including the museum proper which houses a significant collection of antiques and manuscripts. Spread over 40 acres (17 hectares), the Mennonite Heritage Village “takes visitors back in time to when villages like this were all across Southern Manitoba.” Learn more about the museum here… (they say “it’s worth the trip.”)
