Lives and Letters of an Immigrant Family: The van Dreveldts' Experiences along the Missouri, 1844-1866 was published by University of Nebraska Press in 1998. The book began as a translation of a large collection of family letters privately held by a German client. This link contains excerpts from the book and of several reviews as well as the text of a paper I delivered about the letters.
