"In the early 1900s, as Russia's imperial rule takes its toll on Finland, the three Koski siblings -- Ilmari, Matti, and the politicized young Aino -- are forced to flee to the United States. Not far from the majestic Columbia River, the siblings settle among other Finns in a logging community in southern Washington, where the first harvesting of the colossal old-growth forests begets rapid development, and radical labor movements begin to catch fire. The brothers face the excitement and danger of pioneering this frontier wilderness while Aino, foremost of the book's strong, independent women, devotes herself to organizing the industry's first unions. As Aino grows further into womanhood, she struggles to reconcile her political beliefs with her latent desire to build a family -- a desire complicated by trauma from her past. At the same time, Aino finds herself pulled between two very different suitors, both of whom harbor their own painful secrets."--,Provided by publisher.
