Stockholm, Texas, was an early twentieth century Swedish colony in
the Lower Rio Grande Valley of Texas. The topic provides a
fascinating micro-history of culture contacts, acculturation, and
economic development in a frontier setting. The Swedish colony
represented an island of Scandinavian culture in a predominately
Hispanic area that was in the process of colonization by
Anglo-Americans from the north. The story of Stockholm, Texas, is a
case history of the impact on a small rural community of the
mechanization and commercialization of American agriculture.
