<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Families and food, entrepreneurs and scholars, faith communities and cultural groups--the history of Koreans in Minnesota involves celebrating their heritage and embracing a northern home.home.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Minnesota has long been home to people from the Korean Peninsula--from early arrivals in the mid-twentieth century to their expanding family networks as well as students and professionals in the decades that followed. About thirty thousand Koreans live in Minnesota today, many of them first-generation immigrants. Many more are part of the Korean adoptee community, its members more strongly connected to Minnesota than any other state.<br /> In this newest addition to the People of Minnesota series, <em>Koreans in Minnesota</em> introduces readers to the history of Korean immigration here, including settlement patterns and the formation of religious and social communities. Organizations ranging from the Korean American Association of Minnesota--the cornerstone of Korean immigrant society--to the Korean Service Center, which provides social services to elderly Koreans, to AK Connection, a networking alliance of adult adopted Koreans, to educational groups and institutions that teach the Korean language and culture help to tell the stories of this varied group.<br /> Author Sooh-Rhee Ryu builds the narrative through interviews with community members and extensive archival work. A personal account by Mrs. Soon Ja Lee tells of arriving in 1953 and, along with her husband, helping to build Minnesota's Korean American community.
