A profile on Carolyn Sperle of Napoleon, North Dakota.

Carolyn Sperle of Napoleon, North Dakota, tells the story of her family immigrating to Napoleon in 1911, just five years before she was born. This is from the newest addition to our Germans from Russia series, Gutes Essen: Good Eating in German Russian Country, which celebrates the food culture of the Germans from Russia who immigrated to south central North Dakota beginning in the 1880’s.
