Book Synopsis The Central Iowa Norwegians, Volume 3 by : Arlen Twedt
Download or read book The Central Iowa Norwegians, Volume 3 written by Arlen Twedt and published by . This book was released on 2020-10-23 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Norwegian immigrants founded a settlement southwest of Cambridge, Iowa, in June 1855 and a second colony east of Story City in June 1856. Fifty years later, an estimated 12,000 Norwegians lived in central Iowa. This book describes how farming changed when modern agricultural machinery became available after the Civil War and how rural life changed when additional rail lines entered central Iowa in the early 1880s. The history also explores religion and church life, educating the next generation, amusement and culture, seeking political influence, and becoming a mother settlement. In 1905, the pioneers held 50th anniversary celebrations in Cambridge and Story City, and central Iowa Norwegians continued to reminisce and share their immigration stories for decades.

Download or read book Spring Grove written by Chad Muller and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2002 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spring Grove: Minnesota's First Norwegian Settlement is a tribute to the state's earliest Norwegian emigrants, and to generations of Norwegian Americans who have made this small farming community amongst deep valleys, fjord-like bluffs, and winding streams their true vesterheim. It is a tale told through striking historic photographs, many previously unreleased, and personal narratives, often humorous and always insightful. The area was first settled in the 1850s by pioneers like James Smith, who, inspired by the landscape, named the place Spring Grove. Smith was followed by the likes of "Big" Ole Gulbransgutton, who chased crooked land surveyors out of town with his bare fist; by the innovative Mons Fladager, whose business acumen earned him the title of "Father of Spring Grove"; and by the 20th-century cartoonist Peter J. Rosendahl, whose work gave a comical voice to the challenges of cultural assimilation. Spring Grove: Minnesota's First Norwegian Settlement also conveys the universality of the Norwegian immigrant experience, and anyone with Norwegian roots who desires to learn more about their ancestors will find it an enjoyable read.

Book excerpt: People who witnessed this true story still can't believe what happened. It was so inspiring that Hollywood came calling and retold the story of a small school's baseball team in the motion picture "The Final Season." It's about family, about faith being tested and affirmed; it rings with the truth that if you never give up, incredible things can happen. Sean Astin, the star of "Rudy" and the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy, played Coach Kent Stock in this movie filmed mostly in eastern Iowa.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For many people, Iowa is a series of rest stops, gas stops, and places to grab some food as they travel the interstate highways that cross the state. However, if one leaves the major routes and takes to the back roads, there's a lot more to this state than what's seen near the interstate exits. This guidebook has 27 auto tours encompassing urban and rural areas--back roads and byways, well-known and little-known places, the famous and the infamous, rivers big and small, great lakes and rare ponds, prairie and forests, plains and hills, old settlements, and brand new communities.
