Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. In May of 2010 David Hecker traveled to the homeland and village that his Great-Grandfather Martin Hecker had immigrated from to the United States in 1891. Munchen, a once prosperous farm community, was located ninety miles north of Odessa, Russia and had been colonized by Germans in 1809. Now this village in present day Ukraine is a battered remnant of its former self after the pillaging of the Bolshevik Revolution and Stalin's collectivization program. This journey to Munchen ended a twenty-four year search into family roots that had started in 1987. Along the way Hecker found out that he was a German from Russia American, that he was a fourth generation Hecker in America rather than a third generation American, and that his great-grandfather and family had lived in the United States, both in Texas and North Dakota, and he didn't find out that fact until he was forty-seven years old. In addition Hecker learned about his extended family's forced migrations, their patterns of life that included Catholicism, arranged marriages, and intense ethnic affiliations as well as their flourishing in present day United States, Germany, Canada, and Argentina. These discoveries about roots had serious implications for Hecker since he had accepted and freely used the freedoms that America offered in social mobility, career opportunities, religious views, and social patterns. The knowledge of his roots and family history led him to write poems, travel narratives, a historical novel, and this memoir.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Cold logic held his attention. Recording specifics gave him a sense of belonging that nothing else did. As he wrote, he grew less and less emotional. A change of heart prompts one man to reevaluate the life he thought he knew in David Hecker's contemplative debut, Strangers Before the Bench. George Schwartz prides himself on his job as an Immigration Naturalization Service Hearing judge. Working in Seattle, he has gained a reputation as a "fences up" judge, meaning that immigrants who appear before him on even the slightest infraction can count on being deported. Schwartz has no doubt that he is doing things the American way. But all that changes when Schwartz discovers that his ancestors from Central Europe had suffered greatly at the hands of officials who acted much like Schwartz himself. This discovery, along with his budding romance with a candid reporter, forces Schwartz to rethink his stance. Hecker's thoughtful prose perfectly captures Schwartz's stunning transformation into a judge who advocates for immigrants' rights. But as pressure mounts from other INS judges and prosecutors, will Schwartz find the strength to fight back?
