But as they prospered over the next 125 years, they abandoned this utilitarian approach and developed a great many buildings that were anything but modest. Many of these buildings still exist today, expressing the story of the Mennonite Commonwealth, a self governing, religious community within the Russian Empire." (jacket blurb). Very Good .
