Crane Hook on the Delaware - NC CHAP

PREFACE
The purposes of the Delaware Swedish Colonial
Society are to commemorate each year on March 29
the landing of the Swedes in 1638 at "The Rocks"
now in Fort Christina State Park, Wilmington,
Delaware; and to collect, preserve, and publish rec-
ords, documents and other material relating to the
history of this first permanent settlement in the
Delaware River Valley.
It is a pleasure to introduce this <strong>Crane</strong> <strong>Hook</strong>
study which is sponsored by the history committee
of the Society.
