About the Author
Eric Mueller was a native of Germany who served with his country's Mountain Troops in Russia where he became acquainted with the remnants of the settlers from his homeland who had not gone to America. He was wounded in the war and became a doctor, initially working in medical research and eventually developing one of the most widely used tests for colon cancer: Hem-occult. This brought him to the United States where, by chance, he picked up the trail of the Germans from Russia. He decided to settle among them and has been the only physician living in the small town of Tripp, South Dakota for over 45 years.

Educated at the Universities of Gottingen and Hamburg, he is married to Hannele Grassy and they have two children, Rainer in California and Susi in South Dakota who works for an Indian Reservation. Susi and Rainer's wife, Marianne, were instrumental in the publication of this fascinating story.
