" The extraordinary lives of Ukrainian - Canadian women" 
Edited by Iroida Wynnyckyj

“What do we know about those Ukrainian women for whom Canada became a homeland, but Ukraine never ceased to be their motherland?  Who are those women? What caused them to abandon their native land and trek so far away, across the ocean? …..”  Dr. Oksana Kis  -  from the introduction to the book.


Life stories of ten Ukrainian-Canadian women who survived the turbulent and often traumatic events of twentieth century Europe and found refuge in Canada where they were actively involved in Ukrainian and Canadian communities.


These life stories were selected from among 250 interviews and are valuable contributions to the oral history of twentieth century Ukraine and Ukrainians in Canada.
