5.0 out of 5 stars A Tribute to the Norwegian Experience, February 14, 2001
By 
This review is from: In Their Own Words: Letters from Norwegian Immigrants (Paperback)
Zempel's work in compiling and translating this book of letters is a tribute to the Norwegian immigrant experience. Through these letters one discovers the great hardship and great joy brought to these individuals who in many circumstances travelled great distances on their own. Thank you for bringing insight to my own families experience through the voices of those who had the courage to venture before.
