Given my ancestry this book series has a lot of relevance. Very well written, informative, and emotional. Love the characters - you find yourself cheering for them. Only nit is the author seems a little obsessed with sex. Excited for next book since the setting is near my home. Moberg used the journals of a founding farmer of my city.
