Abstract	Part of a series intended to improve cross-cultural awareness and appreciation, this volume about Swedish Americans contains readings for secondary students and instructions to help teachers use the materials in multicultural education courses. The first four chapters, which form the bulk of the booklet, provide the student readings. Chapter 1 presents a history of Sweden. The focus of the readings in the second chapter is the "Swedish Migration to America." Chapter 3 deals with "Swedes in Connecticut," and examines why Swedish immigrants come to Connecticut, their economic contributions, home and family life, education, cultural life, religion and politics, and Swedish American societies and organizations. A Connecticut Swedish-American time line is included. "Sweden Today" is the topic of chapter 4, in which students read about the people, education, cultural policy, recreation, religion, traditions, celebrations, government, economy, and foreign policy of contemporary Sweden. Swedish proverbs, rhymes, and riddles are also included. The concluding chapter, intended for the teacher, contains instructional objectives for each of the preceding chapters, suggested learning activities, instructional resources, and a selected bibliography.
