The story ends with a discussion of the ways in which Norwegian-Americans retain their ties to Norway. The book was first published in Norway as Dro?m og Dad (Dream and Deed), in observance of the 150th anniversary of the departure of the first emigrant ship for America. This is an excellent way to celebrate one of the strongest ethnic heritages in America. 606 $aNorwegian Americans$xHistory 606 $aNorwegians$zUnited States 607 $aNorway$xEmigration and immigration 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aNorwegian Americans$xHistory. 615 0$aNorwegians 676 $a973.043982 676 $a973/.04/3982 700 $aSemmingsen$b Ingrid$f1910-1995.$01044855 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910457890303321 996 $aNorway to America$92470732 997 $aUNINA
