Vilhelm Moberg's beloved saga of Karl Oskar, his wife Kristina, and their family is a story that has been echoed by millions of other immigrants to this new, and sometimes strange land. Originally written in Swedish more than 60 years ago after months of research in Minnesota, the "Emigrant" books are classics on both sides of the Atlantic. Listed on Sweden's "Books of the Century" list. Softcover, in English.
Karl Oskar has seen many changes in his days. He's alone and it's time for the final chapter in his life. He knows, though, that the family will continue to grow and prosper in this new and rich land.
