From AudioFile This lively and entertaining abridgment describes the German-Scandinavian Lutheran culture of the Northern Plains. By using the catechism as a model of sorts, Martin and Nelson, along with several others, paint a varied and delightful canvas. Although the substance is everyday life, the presentation is entertaining, at times even hilarious, yet in no way does it mock or parody. Martin and Johnson perform in a deadpan style that is never boring, while the supporting cast adds variety with a rich array of voices and delightful Scandinavian accents. Music is used to great advantage. M.T.F. © AudioFile 2000, Portland, Maine-- Copyright © AudioFile, Portland, Maine
