The Settlers by Vilhelm Moberg

5.0

Nybyggarna (The Settlers), the 3rd book in The Emigrants series, continues to improve the epic saga as the lives of the Swedish emigrants unfold in their home in the New World. Reading the emigrant novels is an engaging way of knowing more about the Swedish emigrants, American history, and the impact of emigration in Sweden. The novel translates facts into an emotive narrative that makes you feel a real connection with their time and place. These novels are one of the most notable produced by Swedish literature, and this book is one of my favorites of the saga.
