Journey: A Novel of America

By James Vesely

Book Overview

The sprawling story of a Czech-American family's determined struggle and unforgettable odyssey - from the hunger and hardship of Eastern Europe, across the cold and gray Atlantic in steerage, and on into America's growing cities and isolated farms.

The Novaks survive and grow through love and loss, peace and war, epidemic and Depression, in a strange and wondrous new land far from home - a young and raw America immersed in the restless throes of change.

JOURNEY is a great, new family saga of turmoil, heartbreak, and humor - with characters as vivid and colorful as the rich American landscape of the last hundred years.
