Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The Swedish colonization of the Americas included a 17th-century colony on the Delaware River in what is now Delaware, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Maryland, as well as two possessions in the Caribbean during the 18th and 19th century. Until 1809, Finland was an integral part of Sweden, and many of the settlers of Sweden''s colonies came from present-day Finland or were Finnish-speaking.

The Swedes and Finns brought their log house design to America, where it became the typical log cabin of pioneers.
