Fred's Destiny James Harold Carlson

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 inspired as you read about their fascinating and unpredictable journey. At various times Fred is called a romantic, a lover of poetry, a drunk, a folk hero, and a generous man with an open heart. He pursues two occupations: coal mining and farming. His destiny ultimately comes into focus as his love of family, a rekindled faith in God, and a revolutionary technique for harvesting cranberries converge to have a significant impact in the world.
