Produktbeschreibung

In the year 1908 four families from East Frisia, which lies on the coast of northern Germany and close to the Dutch border, decide to emigrate to North America. They find a steam freighter in the harbour of Emden which takes them on board. After a rough crossing through the North Sea and a mysterious nightly stop somewhere along the Irish coast, the group, after crossing the Atlantic, arrives tired and weak one night at a dimly lit harbour and are made to disembark by order of the captain. They soon realise that they have not been dropped in the land of their dreams - America. A great adventure with unexpected ups and downs lies ahead of them.
