This is an automatically translated description

Erasmus Zekler's texts provide an interesting, for the whole of the XX century, prescription of the activity of the famous worker of German and partly Ukrainian Christian evangelists Theodor Zekler (1867-1949), personal experience and impressions from Theodore's relatives and close friends, reassessment of his place and role in the national and personal histories of Ukrainians and Germans.

The presented publication shows our city in a slightly different configuration, because nowhere else in similar sources of memoir type can we find valuable information about the beginning and end of the two world wars, repressive actions of the Polish occupation administration and & & «first soviets», testimonies about human relations and mutual assistance in the conditions of people-killing policy, active and uncompromising struggle of German Protestants against the Nazi regime.
