The Promise of America
The Promise of America exhibit is definitely the most visited exhibition on Norwegian emigration ever made. It was produced by the Norwegian University Press in 1984, based upon the book with the same title, "Promise of America" by the Norwegian American Professor Odd Lovoll. While touring the USA, it was administered by the Norwegian Emigration Center. It was later sold to the Municipality of Tysvær, where it has found its permanent residence in the Tysvær Culture House. You are welcome to visit it. It is definitely worth-while.
