Life in the 'Pale' wasn't easy, however, the life of a Jew is seldom easy. In this, the story of one family's generations, young Batya will experience heart wrenching loss and a love for the ages. Enduring a hatred of her people so overwhelming it spawns pogroms, and Nazi death camps, she stands on the arena of history to witness revolutions, world wars and the birth of a nation. Through the ignorance of innocence she will experience the worst that man can conjure and the best that he can envision. From the Steppes of her childhood Ukraine, to the power of the cross of Christ she will prevail.
