Where Eagles Nest chronicles a young couple, Alex and Julianna Lampert, as they immigrate from Lichtenstein, in search of land where they can raise a family and participate in the American dream. The young newlyweds eventually settle in the rugged hills and pasturelands above the Sandy River in Oregon, where they forge a life of love and pursue their quest for prosperity in spite of the struggle in the wild terrain of the Pacific Northwest in the 1880s. —Sharon Nesbit, writer and historian, author of It Could’ve Been Carpdale.
About the Author
Helen Wand was raised in the rugged hills of Oregon's Columbia River
Gorge. A child of a large Catholic family, she has fearlessly trespassed into
the lives of her immigrant ancestors who first settled at the west end of the
Gorge. Her writing places the reader by their side as they raise and feed a
large brood of children, build a farm, and ultimately, a community. Those who
see the neat farms and green fields of Multnomah County, east of the Sandy
River, will get a sense of how they began and the challenges they faced along
the way.
