Description
This book introduces Karl Oskar and Kristina Nilsson, their three young children, and eleven others who make up a resolute party of Swedes fleeing the poverty, religious persecution, and social oppression of Smaland. The Nilssons leave a farm too small and stony to support them. Kristina's uncle Danjel Andreasson seeks religious freedom for himself, his wife, and four children. For ten long weeks they suffer the cramped, filthy quarters of the sailing vessel that finally brings them to New York City.
