Well, I was looking for a different author to take a break from what I have been reading (Janette Oke's writings). I read a comment by someone on a later book concerning the same family and their fondness of the characters. I had to look into the older books and start at the beginning. I am so glad I did! Very well written and intense story of a Norwegian family that begins to leave Norway in search of the promises of "Amerika". Their plans took a while and many doubts crossed their hearts and minds as they crossed the ocean in very difficult quarters. Their first look at "Amerika" was tarnished by things that happened as soon as they disembark. They wondered at the "gold on every street" when they saw and smelled the sewer along every street instead. This book tells the story of their travel to the West, to the land of the Dakotas. There are two brothers with their wives and two children making the journey, one of which was born in route to America. What a lot of drive is in the characters of this story. The more I read about them, the more they felt so real and the more I realized how little I really know about coming to America.

WARNING!!! This book and all the other 17 books are about the Bjorklund family are wonderful. The author is a fantastic writer. Her stories want you to keep on reading. The family she writes about has tears and laughter and you experience those tears and laughter. Lauraine Snelling has a God given talent and I thank her for sharing it. But, be prepared to buy the next book and the next and the next. You got the first book free in the first, third and fourth series. If you want to read every book about the Bjorklund family be prepared to pay $105.63. I think that is outrageous. These books are not stand alone books. You must buy the next book to find out what happens. I call that a "cheap trick" but an expensive one for the reader.

Uff da! It was good! Of course, it was an image of my mor and grandparents settling in the Dakotas in the 1880's. Ja, I heard the stories just like in the book, but from the lips of my mor. Sure, the rope, or wire in my mor's case, that stretched from the house to the barn so that one would not lose their way to and fro in a snow storm, the soddy, the heartbreak of losing two young ones when disease came through, the Christmas goose, the lefse, and so forth. I could identify. Some traditions die hard; I still cook a goose at Christmas and have for many years.The writing is good; the struggles and victories are accurate, and the characters were real enough to be believable. They were like some of my hard-headed Norwegian relatives--good people yet sinners with faults of their own, but God is present. There is mix of humor and drama and love interest. Metis is the only fabrication, or I should say, the only unrealistic character in my mind. The Sioux where my forebears settled were different.So, if you like a good book, have some Scandinavian or upper midwest background, or just appreciate history and reading about life at the end of the 19th century, then read this book. I am looking forward to picking up the others in the series and following Ingeborg into the next generation. Mange takk, Ms. Snelling, for a fine read.

An Untamed Land by Lauraine Snelling begins in Norway with a prologue dated 1877. Then Far (father Gustaf Bjorklund) and his family begin planning for the immigration of several of his sons from Norway to America. Roald, married to Anna with 21-month Thorliff and pregnant with a new baby will be joined by 19-year-old Carl and Kaaren, whom he plans to marry.The actual story begins three years later in 1880. But there is no more Anna. Ingeborg is now by Roald’s side and we discover Anna and the babe she was carrying have died. We join the six (Karl, Kaaren, their baby Gunny, Roald, Ingeborg and five-year-old Thorliff) as they are about to disembark from the ship after an arduous transatlantic voyage.Ingeborg and Roald are still adjusting to each other. Ingeborg chafes under Roald’s protective, take-charge ways. Roald, missing his childhood sweetheart Anna and traumatized by her death, is trying to understand Ingeborg’s impulsiveness and curb her independent tendencies.We follow them as they make their cumbersome way from America’s eastern seaboard to the Dokota Territory by covered wagon and live with them in the day-to-day hardships of homesteading. Especially grueling are the long and desperately cold winters with their isolating storms.I found main characters Ingeborg and Roald interesting and complex. Snelling has a way of showing us their faults and at the same time arousing sympathy for them as we enter their points of view. A major plot line of the story is the evolution of their relationship.She also handles the setting masterfully with enough description of the wild Dakota lands for me to see, hear, and feel the elements that are almost like another character. Living with these young moms as they keep house in covered wagons and then little soddies, cook over open fires, rejoice over a couple of cows, a team of oxen, some sheep, scrabble in the dirt to plant vegetables, even some flowers gave me a new admiration for North America’s pioneers.Things go along relatively well till about two thirds through the book when tragedy strikes. Though the end is satisfying, Snelling leaves enough plot bits unresolved to make us want to find out what happens in the books that follow.An Untamed Land is a strong beginning to what has proven to be a popular series of six Red River of the North books. If you enjoy pioneering stories that major on studying human nature, and minor on a little sweet romance, you’ll love this book.
