Ágrip:

Glenn Sigurdson speaks straight from the heart of a boy growing up in a legendary Icelandic Canadian fishing family on Lake Winnipeg. He breathes life into the people, places, and lives of those Icelanders who left desperate circumstances in the 1870’s with the dream of building a better future for their children in a new land.
