Steve Puluka Member Registered: 07/10/05 Posts: 66 Loc: Pittsburgh, PA	Interesting travel article on our wooden churches in Europe. I didn't know this little tidbit. Quote: The area is also believed to have been the only province of the Soviet Union that was ever governed by an American, Gregory Zatkovich, an ethnic Rusyn — or Ruthenian — from Pittsburgh who was appointed governor in 1920 when the region was still part of Czechoslovakia.

I remember that we've seen at least one such website previously, but I don't think it was this one - lots of beautiful photos, some pages available in both English and Ukrainian, and information on a few very interesting looking texts on the subject.
