"Kasselmann, Castleman" traces an extraordinary American journey beginning in 1709 when Johann Dietrich fled German serfdom, losing three children during the Atlantic crossing. From New York's dangerous frontier to Virginia's fertile valleys, from Confederate battlefields to Louisiana cotton plantations, and ultimately to California suburbs, each generation faced unique challenges while maintaining the family's remarkable adaptability. This meticulously researched narrative follows a family that repeatedly risked everything for freedom and opportunity, building and rebuilding through revolution, civil war, economic collapse, and technological revolution. More than a family chronicle, it's a deeply human story about resilience, reinvention, and America's complex moral journey across three tumultuous centuries.
