In this engrossing read, Tulla Froyen gives us a glimpse into a bygone-and often misunderstood-era of American social and political activism against the predatory liquor traffic. Steeped in primary sources, the life of Norwegian-born activist and legislator Engebret "E.E." Lobeck provides new insights into both the practical hardships and political opportunities for immigrant settlers on America's northern frontier.
