The 15th annual New Sweden Conference will be held at the historic Lazaretto Ballroom ("the Ellis Island of Philadelphia") in Essington, PA.

The conference title is Power and Politics in New Sweden,1638-1655, emphasizing the governing of New Sweden by all five of the commanders/governors (Minuit, Ridder, Printz, Papegoja, and Risingh).
Four European scholars as well as Professor Soderlund and the Rev. Dr. Kim-Eric Williams will be presenting. This conference will no doubt be historic.
