Joranger, Terje Mikael Hasle (ed.): NAHA 2020

The text of the call stated that papers should focus on the relationship between “children, youth, women, Quakers and others” and, especially, the group perspective of said groups. The essays in this volume of Norwegian-American Essays reflect the intentions of the seminar. These essays all take into account the group perspective in various temporal and spatial locales connected to the Norwegian-American migration experience.
