Download or read book Diaries of Andrew Peterson written by Andrew Peterson and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 737 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Andrew Peterson kept a daily diary for forty-eight years, from 1850 when he emigrated from Sweden to 1898. He would continue writing in this diary until two days before his death, on March 31, 1898. Many of the early parts from his time in Iowa were unfortunately lost. Upon his death, Peterson's family donated his diaries and papers to the Minnesota Historical Society. The original Swedish diary is translated here, in its entirety. Fifty years after his death, this diary was utilized by the Swedish novelist Vilhelm Moberg for his novels about Swedish emigrants entitled The Emigrants (1951), Unto a Good Land (1954), The Settlers (1961), and The Last Letter Home (1961). Two acclaimed movies were later made from these books, The Emigrants (1971) and The New Land (1972)"--
Book Synopsis The Last Letter Home by : Vilhelm Moberg
Download or read book The Last Letter Home written by Vilhelm Moberg and published by Minnesota Historical Society Press. This book was released on 2008-10-14 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Considered one of Sweden's greatest 20th-century writers, Vilhelm Moberg created Karl Oskar and Kristina Nilsson to portray the joys and tragedies of daily life for early Swedish pioneers in America. His consistently faithful depiction of these humble people's lives is a major strength of the Emigrant Novels. Moberg's extensive research in the papers of Swedish emigrants in archival collections, including the Minnesota Historical Society, enabled him to incorporate many details of pioneer life. First published between 1949 and 1959 in Swedish, these four books were considered a single work by Moberg, who intended that they be read as documentary novels. These editions contain introductions written by Roger McKnight, Gustavus Adolphus College, and restore Moberg's bibliography not included in earlier English editions. Book 4 portrays the Nilsson family during the turmoil of living through the era of the Civil War and Dakota Conflict and their prospering in the midst of Minnesota's growing Swedish community of the 1860s-90s. "It's important to have Moberg's Emigrant Novels available for another generation of readers."?Bruce Karstadt, American Swedish Institute.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: #1 NATIONAL BESTSELLER #1 INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER What does everyone in the modern world need to know? Renowned psychologist Jordan B. Peterson's answer to this most difficult of questions uniquely combines the hard-won truths of ancient tradition with the stunning revelations of cutting-edge scientific research. Humorous, surprising and informative, Dr. Peterson tells us why skateboarding boys and girls must be left alone, what terrible fate awaits those who criticize too easily, and why you should always pet a cat when you meet one on the street. What does the nervous system of the lowly lobster have to tell us about standing up straight (with our shoulders back) and about success in life? Why did ancient Egyptians worship the capacity to pay careful attention as the highest of gods? What dreadful paths do people tread when they become resentful, arrogant and vengeful? Dr. Peterson journeys broadly, discussing discipline, freedom, adventure and responsibility, distilling the world's wisdom into 12 practical and profound rules for life. 12 Rules for Life shatters the modern commonplaces of science, faith and human nature, while transforming and ennobling the mind and spirit of its readers.

Pembrick roamed all of Skree with a sketchbook and pen, searching behind every tree stump and under every stone, in every river and on every hill, to discover and document the endless living wonders of the Maker's world.
