Where did Anna get her strength? She was the youngest daughter of a Polish farmer and very small physically. However, she was always in command when she was in the room. The story in this book of Anna's life is different from many stories of immigrants because it is told from the perspective of a woman. This book tells about the life of a Polish immigrant from the Russian partition of Poland. It describes the area where she was born, her early life and the tragedy before she left for America. Somehow, she overcame the challenges of travel across the Atlantic to the United States and found the strength to build a new family without the support of any her Polish family being near.

I believe that she gained her strength from the tragedy of her early life in Poland and the challenges she overcame to start her new life in America. She worked hard each day but still had time to be happy from her garden and her family.

The story asks questions about Anna's fears in making these changes and hopefully will give the reader insights that will help them understand their immigrant ancestors more.

In writing my grandmother's story I wanted to go beyond the names, dates and pictures in the albums. She was more than that. It is very important to ask why she did what she did.

As you read Anna's story, ask the same questions about your ancestors. If you do, your view of your family history will definitely change.
