This novel sheds light on the lives of German immigrants in 18th-century America, focusing on the character Lambert Sternberg, a young farmer who navigates the challenges of his new life while grappling with themes of love and identity amidst cultural tensions. The narrative set against the backdrop of colonial America explores the difficulties encountered by newly arrived immigrants against the unfolding events of their time. At the start of the story, we find ourselves in New York Harbor in April 1758, where a crowd gathers to witness the arrival of German immigrants. Among them is Lambert Sternberg, who feels both a sense of obligation and compassion towards the newcomers, especially as they face derision from local townsfolk. As Lambert encounters a young woman, Catherine Weise, amidst the chaos of arrival, he is struck by her beauty and despair. The opening chapters depict Lambert's resolve to protect and assist Catherine, who is in dire circumstances, indicating the beginning of a poignant and complex relationship. Their journey toward a shared life amidst hardship and societal challenges sets the stage for the unfolding narrative.
