This book spans a period of 211 years – beginning in 1803 on a small farm in northern Sweden and ending in Sarasota, Florida in 2014. The story involves a farmer, a shoemaker, an industrialist and several businessmen who were very much involved in various civic organizations in their local communities. There are family holidays in the south of France but there are also lonely struggles of being a farmer in northern Illinois in the mid-1800s, in the days before any machinery when they used a pair of oxen to farm.
