Huber sets out to trace these journeys and tounderstand her family - who they were and what mattered to them. As shefollows in their footsteps, walking the paths they walked and looking overthe land they farmed, she finds herself on a journey she hadn't expected.Based on thousands of hours of research, Huber recreates the immigrationexperience in a way that captures both its sweeping historical breadth andits intimately personal consequences.
