Across the Deep Blue Sea Quotes

“A large Norwegian settlement known as Indielandet began around 1850 in Portage and Waupaca counties in northcentral Wisconsin. The pioneer settlers went first to the town of Scandinavia after a stop in Winnebago County. New and older settlements retained close relations, and a sense of Norwegian American commonality existed.”
― Odd S. Lovoll, Across the Deep Blue Sea: The Saga of Early Norwegian Immigrants
