The Cotters Son by H A Foss was the topic of discussion. This book was first published as a serial novel in the Decorah Posten, a Norwegian language newspaper published in the United States. The group discussed how this presentation affected the way the story was told. The characters needed to be easily understood and related to, the chapters needed to be short and end with an event that would make one anxious to read the next installment, and there needed to be a clear message of right winning out over wrong. These characteristics also made The Cotters Son an easy read that our group really enjoyed. It was like a soap opera--the good were really good and the bad were really bad. "As ash from Iceland's Eyjafjallajokull volcano kept European airspace shut down, affecting millions of travelers around the This book has often been compared to "Uncle Tom's Cabin" in world, some government agencies and airlines clashed over that it was written to expose the evils of the way a class of the flight bans.

    American Cinema of the 1930s SCREEN AMERICAN CULTURE / AMERICAN CINEMA DECADES Each volume in the Screen Decades: American Culture/American Cinema series presents a group of original essays analyzing the impact of cultural issues on the cin- ema and the impact of the cinema in American society. Because every chapter explores a spectrum of particularly significant motion pictures and the broad range of historical events in one year, readers will gain a continuing sense of the decade as it came to be depicted on movie screens across the continent. The integration of his- torical and cultural events with the sprawling progression of American cinema illu- minates the pervasive themes and the essential movies that define an era. Our series represents one among many possible ways of confronting the past; we hope that these books will offer a better understanding of the connections between American culture and film history.

INTRODUCTION THE Norwegian Community in New York City is now more than a century old, figuring from the time of the arrival of the sloop Restau- rationen, which often and with justification has been called the Norwegian May')'lower. For about 115 years Norwegians have been part and parcel of this community and have made their substantial contributions to the upbuilding of the City and the land. These contributions to what may be called the Making of America have on the part of the Norwegian ele- ment embraced nearly every field of human endeavor, although it is quite natural that in the Port of New York and along the Atlantic seaboard as a whole the heaviest contribution to American life and development has been in shipping in all its various phases.
