During a time of two world wars and a sluggish world economy, many Northern Europeans left their homelands to build the American and Canadian West with dreams of abundance and new life. Based on oral history interviews and a treasure trove of family papers, this book is a compelling memoir that paints a portrait of a dying way of life.
