My Antonia

 I enjoyed this book as I grew up near where the story takes place. We get to know Jim and Antonia (Toni), their families and friends during the late 1800's. The conflicts between the families who had newly immigrated to the United States from Scandinavia and the differences the town and country folks placed on each other. We see how they change over the years, what they did and where they ended up living. Can what they experienced be similiar to the lives of immigrants today?
