Synopsis: It is a memoir in fictional form, written in a simple and unpretentious style in the early 1890s by one Per Hagen, a pioneer Norwegian immigrant to eastern Wisconsin. Through assuming the format of a historical novel, the narrative has an authentic quality, casting light on social conditions both in Norway and among Norwegian immigrants in America.
