And I come down to deliver themand to bring them up out of that land unto a good land and large, unto a land flowing with milk and honey. Exodus 3:8, quoted by Vilhelm Moberg in Unto a Good Land------------------------------------------------Unto a Good Land is Vilhelm Mobergs second book in what was originally a planned trilogy about the emigration of a group of people to the United States from the province of Smaland, located in southern Sweden.
