Gustafson Anita Olson - Swedish Chicago The Shaping Of An Immigrant Community 1880 1920 - Paperback Shapes & Patterns Barcode: 4046661724820Binding: Paperback Description: Between 1880 and 1920, emigration from Sweden to Chicago soared and the city itself grew remarkably. During this time the Swedish population in the city shifted from three centrally located ethnic enclaves to neighborhoods scattered throughout the city. As Swedes moved to new neighborhoods the early enclave based culture adapted to a progressively more dispersed pattern of Swedish settlement in Chicago and its suburbs.
