The Last Letter Home

This last book in the series was my least favorite, simply because the narrative felt somewhat bloated just to make the fourth book. But I'm still glad to have read the series and wrapped up the story of Karl Oskar and Kristina immigration to Minnesota. The author did phenomenal work getting the story as authentic as possible and it worked for me.

Anyone interested in immigration during the 1850s from Europe to America would benefit from reading this book. Trying to track down the movie made from the first two books now to expand my appreciation of this series.
