rmarcin's review against another edition
3.0
Brief account of a young girl and her family's journey from Russia to America. The father has preceded them and after 3 years, they are finally able to join him. The children and their mother encounter multiple obstacles along the way, especially in passing into Germany. Since cholera was raging at the time, passengers were subjected to special steamings and cleanings of themselves and their belongings. Prices for passage were often increased.
The voyage across the Atlantic was particularly difficult, with seasickness prevalent among the passengers. It is hard to imagine these difficult journeys when travel today is so much simpler.
