Ga till Amerika: The Swedish creation of an ethnic identity for Worcester, Massachusetts

Ga till Amerika was the sixth exhibition in Worcester Historical Museum's continuing series of exhibitions focusing on the ethnic communities of Worcester, Massachusetts. This book presents the story told in the exhibition and illustrates many of the objects that were exhibited. Its title expresses the links between Worcester and the city of Hoganas and the province of Varmland in Sweden. Ga till Amerika is the first telling of the stories of thousands of Swedish immigrants for whom, in the decades between the end of the Civil War and the start of World War I, Worcester was the Promised Land.
