Fred's Destiny
From the coal mines of western Pennsylvania to the cranberry bogs of central Wisconsin, Fred's Destiny intersects Potawatomi Indians, the Moravian Church, Socialism, and two World Wars. An immigrant to America from Sweden, Fred Anderson is jilted by the girl of his dreams only to discover God has someone else in mind to be his life partner-Edna Marie. You'll be amused, educated, and inspired as you read about their fascinating and unpredictable journey. At various times Fred is called a romantic, a folk hero, a lover of poetry, and a generous man with an open heart. He pursues two occupations: coal mining and farming, and he does both exceptionally well. His destiny ultimately comes into focus as his faith in God, his love of family, and a revolutionary technique for harvesting cranberries converge to have a significant impact in the world. Don't be surprised if you find your own destiny in the pages of this compelling novel.
