No ethnic group is so identified with a single state as the Swedes are with Minnesota. From before statehood, Swedish immigrants flooded into the small frontier towns of St. Paul and Minneapolis. Encouraged by agents who promised inexpensive and fertile farmland, they came by the thousands. By the turn of the twentieth century, over 126,000 Swedes lived in Minnesota--d their impact on everything in the state continues to today. In this concise history of Swedes in Minnesota, the newest addition to The People of Minnesota series, Anne Gillespie Lewis tells the rich history of this ethnic group in the state they would make their own. Swedes in Minnesota recounts the story of the great Swedish migration through numbers-- the census reports and settlement patterns. It also tells the story through the cultural institutions Swedes founded--e churches, schools, and lodges, the Swedish-language newspapers and businesses, the neighborhoods and the associations. But mostly this book tells the story through the people: the anecdotes, letters, and interviews from the immigrants themselves and from their grandchildren. For the many Minnesotans of Swedish ancestry, Lewis provides a remarkably concise portrait of an ethnic group striving to become American while struggling to maintain its ties to tradition.

Great Toy!
Size: 3.5"
My dog loves it. The ball is not soft, that's why I chose it for my super chewer dog. The squeak pitch is a medium level. The ball fits comfortably in her mouth. I would say it's an average weight.

Durable for large dogs
Size: 3.5"
This is adorable ball. I have a 90 pound Dog and is still intact. I’d like to use it at night when I throw the ball because it lights up my Dog likes this ball over any tennis ball. It’s chewy and a little spikes massages there gums. I bought this ball 9 months ago and he plays with it every day. The light still works.

HE WON’T STOP PLAYING!!!!! Ha Ha!
Size: 3.5", Size: 3.5"
Just when I thought I couldn’t find a toy that would let me watch a 2 1/2 hour movie without interruption…. This came along!! I had to hide it overnight, but he saw where I hid it and he whined for 20 minutes until he finally went to sleep and they say dogs don’t have long-term memory well, this one as soon as I woke up was sitting right by the closet where the ball was hiding, he hasn’t let it go since ….the disco lights are fun, especially at night!!!The only thing is he’s biting the little spikes off but at least he’s spitting them out which is a good thing. Highly recommend for hours and hours of enjoyment plus it’s very bouncy.

Dog's best friend

Best ball ever! My dog loves it...the only improvement could be made is a tracking device, because when he loses it he is a lost little doggo!
