Hardcover. Zustand: Very good. Presumed First Edition, First printing. [10], 292, [2] pages. Footnotes. Publications. Pencil erasure residue on fep and rep. Norwegian-American Historical Association publishes scholarly books, documenting research and interpretations of the American experience of immigrants from Norway. On 4th day of February, 1926, the Norwegian-American Historical Association was incorporated by Knut Gjerset, Birger Osland, and O. E. Rolvaag. The organization was founded at St. Olaf College, in Northfield, Minnesota. Although the association is still located on the campus of St. Olaf, both institutions are independent entities. Theodore C. Blegen served as managing editor for publications from 1925 until his retirement in 1960. His devotion to high standards of historical scholarship enabled the Norwegian-American Historical Association to achieve a reputation as a learned society. Later editors have included Kenneth O. Bjork from 1960 until 1980 and Odd S. Lovoll from 1980 until 2001. Ole E. Rolvaag, the author of Giants in the Earth, became the association's first secretary and archivist. Rolvaag initiated the collection of archives including letters, papers, books, periodicals, photographs, diaries and newspapers related to Norwegian-American life. The association promotes Norwegian-American historical research and literary work; and helps maintain and develop archives of Norwegian-American historical material. The association has published nearly one hundred books of scholarly merit; promoted Norwegian-American historical research and literary work and preserved of materials of historical significance. Among the articles is on on The Bygdelag Movement by Off Sverre Lovoll. The exodus of people from the Old World to the New in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries represents one of the largest folk migrations of all time. Norway's participation in the Atlantic crossing is not remarkable in quantitative terms, but seen in relationship to her population, it was a blood-letting - a great loss of men and women in their most productive years. From the time of the arrival of the Sloop folk, the first immigrants in 1825, to 1915, official records show that about 800,000 Norwegians migrated to America. This figure is more than four fifths of Norway's total number of inhabitants in 1801. The heaviest drain on people occurred in the last quarter of the nineteenth century, when the country retained less than one half of its natural increase. In the 1880's, eleven out of every thousand Norwegians were leaving annually. Comparative figures for other national groups would be six Swedes, six Englishmen, four Germans, and sixteen Irishmen. Accordingly, Norway has proportionately given more of her sons and daughters to the American melting pot than any other country except Ireland.…
