Four young vagabonds venture on an odyssey through Minnesota by river, ending in Saint Louis, in 1932. Krueger tells a page-turning story of four young orphans' search for ‘home’ in the midst of the Great Depression with historical references that add meat to this story’s bones. Loved it. Two Minnesota historical events he includes I’d read in other books might be of interest to others. Consider reading Mary Relindes Ellis’s 'The Bohemian Flats' and Diane Wilson’s 'Spirit Car: Journey into a Dakota Past.'
