VHS video tape in case. An exploration of director Juliann Blackmore's newly discovered Icelandic ancestry. Her great-great-grandfather, Sigursteinn Oddson left Iceland in 1883. His neighbour, Hans Peter Tergesen, left in 1887. The two men were part of a massive exodus from Iceland to Canada after a devastating volcano drove 1/3 of the population from their island home. The majority went to a settlement in Manitoba they named 'New Iceland'." - cover. Former library copy with usual markings. Book
