The Viking Immigrants Book PDF Summary

"From 1870 until 1914, almost one quarter of the population of Iceland migrated to North America. The Viking Immigrants examines how the distinctive everyday culture that emerged in Icelandic North American communities - from food and fashion to ghost stories and Viking parades - sheds light on a century and a half of change and adaptation. Through an analysis of the history of everyday forms of expression, this book reveals the larger forces that shaped the evolution of an immigrant community. This exploration of the Icelandic North American community draws on rare and fascinating sources of community life, including oral histories, recipes, photographs, and memoirs. By using a multi-sensory approach to immigrant experience, The Viking Immigrants uses often-overlooked cultural practices like clothing production, the preservation of recipes, and the telling of ghost stories to understand tension and transformation in an immigrant community."--
