"No more time for Germans, she said. As though it was for her to
determine this for him. So much was happening. He was forgetting
his knapsack, which he was entitled to keep. And he was forgetting
the other Polish sergeants-the ones he had agreed to go to town
with, to the dance. Already she had him fully confused. And hadn't
she mentioned America, even? What was it she said about America?"
So begins the adventure of "Jadwiga's Crossing," a compelling story
of emigrants from Poland in the period after America's great Civil
War. A young girl from a Baltic fishing community, a proud soldier
in service to Prussian militarism, and the love that compels him to
take the gamble of a lifetime. Theirs is no simple voyage to the
New World as they deal with the challenges of a mismanaged
squarerigger, discord among their fellow passengers, a scarcity of
food, and mounting disasters. Website: JadwigasCrossing.com
