| Summary | "Nach Amerika! Ein Volksbuch. Dritter Band" by Friedrich Gerstäcker is a historical novel written in the mid-19th century. This work is a continuation of the narrative about German emigrants journeying to America, highlighting their adventures and experiences, particularly in New Orleans and along the Mississippi River. The story focuses on characters such as Steinert, who is eager for new business opportunities, and Clara, who grapples with personal turmoil as they arrive in the New World, illustrating the complex emotions tied to their migration. At the start of the novel, the passengers aboard a ship are nearing the Mississippi River's mouth, anticipating their arrival in America. The excitement of landfall soon turns to disappointment as they discover the wetlands surrounding them. Steinert, dressed confidently, tries to impress others with his business aspirations, while Clara faces emotional challenges as she contemplates her future. The opening reveals a tapestry of emotions, from jubilation to confusion, as the characters confront the reality of their new home, setting the tone for the exploration of immigrant life and the pursuit of the American dream.
