Based on ground-breaking research, this book describes the unique concerns of individual ethnic groups and delves into their personal Minnesota stories: farmers and factory workers, families and single people, idealists and pragmatists, people who were devout or irreligious -- those who cut ties with their homeland and formed part of Minnesota's ethnic saga.

Excerpt from Danish Brotherhood in America: Twentieth National Convention, September 18-22, 1939, in Hotel Sherman, Chicago, Illinois The great Chicago is one of the youngest of the. World's metropolises. In 1833 a few hundred inhabitants incorporated Chicago, at which time a small number of frame houses could be found near Fort Dearborn and along the river. The village was more or less isolated. From the rest of the world; only when a caravan on the war West made a stop-over in Chicago did news reach the town. No one foresaw that within a few score of years this same Spot would become the heart of one of the world's greatest cities.
