Physical description: xv, 218 p., port.; 21 cm.

Language: German

Karger worked as a farm hand at Morden and Morris, Manitoba, and as a teacher at Friedensthal, near Emerson, before moving to Ontario. While virulently anti-Canadian as well as English and American, and not overly accurate, it is interesting for its information about the ethnic make-up of the population in the West.
