Description

Den okända släkten kallar Vilhelm Moberg de svenskar som är bosatta i Nordamerika – ättlingar till de emigranter som under 1800-talet begav sig ut på den farliga och ovissa färden till det stora landet i väster. Här redovisar han nu en del av det väldiga material som hans stora epos Utvandrarserien bygger på. Han berättar om hur svensk-amerikenarna mer och mer vuxit in i det amerikanska samhället och hur amerikalegenden skapades i Sverige. Han skildrar några av pionjärernas märkliga livsöden. Han låter oss ta del av farmaren Andrew Petersons jättelika, unika dagbok. Han för oss till undangömda kyrkogårdar i Mellanvästern. Och mycket annat som allt ger oss en detaljrik och fängslande bild av det stora drama som den svenska amerikaemigrationen var.Den okända släkten gavs ut första gången 1950.
