This historical memoir reveals the life of Carl Kuehn and Hulda Bandt, first generation Americans, who lived in rural Wisconsin during the late 1800s and early 1900s. There are many narratives about European immigrants that came to the US in the 1800s, but few talk about the families that arrived from Prussia. This recollection entertains, educates, and informs readers with fascinating historical details, how life was lived in the early 1900s in rural Wisconsin.Edward Kuehn and Linda Ruggeri put together the puzzle of Ed's Midwest American family to form a solid picture of his grandparents, taking the reader on a journey through their life, in early 20th-century America. We identify with the story because of the similarities with our own immigration ancestry. Through a series of vignettes we learn about the beauty, difficulty and simplicity of rural family life, all placed within the historical context of the times.
