Of - A tale of how Peter Mueller came to be is crisply-written historical fiction that deftly examines a family's lineage over a period of roughly 100 years. Characters battle in three wars and labor in a steel mill, on a horse farm and in a coal mine. The harshness of life in America for immigrants in the late 19th century and early 20th century is brightened with humor. The book relieves heavily upon character dialogue, including that of characters who speak broken English. An easy, enjoyable read.
