The Sons of Norway Book Club met on Tuesday, March 18, at the Library and discussed their recent book, "Legend of Siljatjern Seter" by Gunlaug Nokland of Norway. The book was enjoyed by the group and a special guest was Deb Nelson Gourley, the publisher of the book who gave much interesting background on the author and the story content. The Seter was a small farm up in the mountains in Norway where the cattle would spend the summer and the young girls would take care of the cattle with the milking and making cheese and other dairy foods.
