Duerksen writes, "Growing up in the vast Paraguayan wilderness of thorn trees, snakes, and unreached indigenous tribes that threaten his family's survival, Rudolf Duerksen takes the reader on a journey of the harsh realities faced by Mennonite settlers in South America.
"Told from the perspective of the first generation born to Russian Mennonite refugees that settled in the Gran Chaco in Paraguay, "Death At The Grass Huts" is a memoir about human endeavor and reliance on God's grace in the face of adversity.
"There are stories about making the first contact with indigenous tribes to developing a thriving economy alongside them—stories about misfortune and great personal sacrifice it took to turn Latin America's 'green hell' into a prosperous community," says Duerksen.
"Along the way, Duerksen finds himself cutting wheat fields in Kansas to delivering groceries on the narrow streets of old town Basel in Switzerland—from loading a plane in Texas headed to South America full of cows to starting a home for abandoned children on the gritty streets of Asuncion.
"In the end, these stories are all about revealing our shared humanity and what's possible when we follow God's leading."
