The Swedish-Americans of Illinois

Svenska Tribunen-Nyheter, Dec. 7, 1915

This is the title of a book, written in English, which will be published next year. The publisher is The Swedish-American Biographical Association, an organization consisting of prominent countrymen interested in Swedish-American history. The work is being edited by the well-known newspaperman, Anders Schon.

The book will be in two parts, the first a general historical survey of activities and accomplishments of our nationals in this state, while the second part will contain several hundred biographies of living Swedish-Americans of Illinois. The book promises to be a very interesting and instructive one.

Those subscribers who have not yet submitted their biographies should do so at once so that the publishing may not be delayed.

The book should prove a valuable addition to our Swedish-American historical and biographical literature.
