A metaphor for the Swedish migration to America in the mid-nineteenth century, the Sven Svensson family, traced here by a descendant, historian H. Arnold Barton. This book provides a model for genealogical research with which all persons interested in ancestors can identify and from which anyone can learn. He traces the Svenssons from their settlement on the prairie frontier in Iowa to the dispersal of the younger members to various parts of the U.S. into different walks of life and much more.
