Investigates the notion of ethnic identity as it relates to Scandinavian Americans and political affiliations in Wisconsin, from 1890-1914. The author explains the change by looking at several important Scandinavian-American institutions, including the church, mutual aid fraternities, the temperance movement, and the Scandinavian-language press.
