Far from being a treatise on birds, “Flights of the Herons” is about people.
|
|
|
| Emily Dickinson wrote: "Hope is the thing with feathers, that
perches in the soul." What else but hope drives the suffering to continue
searching for that brightly lit doorway that leads to freedom from oppression?
|
|
|
| "Flights of the Herons" binds three members of the Reyher family
together in their flights from oppression in a seamless narrative that will
keep you spellbound until the very end.

|
|
| The story is a work of fiction, however,
it includes accurate genealogy of Johann Gotthard Reyher, who in 1819 fled the
oppression of mandatory mercenary servitude in the German Kingdom of
Wuerttemberg to emigrate to the United States. It further contains genealogy of
Hans Reyher, who migrated to Wuerttemberg from Switzerland after the Thirty
Years’ War. (Reyher means heron in German)
