Considered one of Sweden's greatest 20th-century writers, Vilhelm Moberg created Karl Oskar and Kristina Nilsson to portray the joys and tragedies of daily life for early Swedish pioneers in America. His consistently faithful depiction of these humble people's lives is a major strength of the Emigrant Novels.Moberg's extensive research in the papers of Swedish emigrants in archival collections, including the Minnesota Historical Society, enabled him to incorporate many details of pioneer life. First published between 1949 and 1959 in Swedish, these four books were considered a single work by Moberg, who intended that they be read as documentary novels. These editions contain introductions written by Roger McKnight, Gustavus Adolphus College, and restore Moberg's bibliography not included in earlier English editions.
Book 1 introduces Karl Oskar and Kristina Nilsson, their three young children, and eleven others who make up a resolute party of Swedes fleeing the poverty, religious persecution, and social oppression of Sm land in 1850.
"It's important to have Moberg's Emigrant Novels available for another generation of readers." --Bruce Karstadt, American Swedish Institute

Not quite indestructible, but closer than other toys
Size: Large 10", Style: Rubber Dog Toy
We have a German Shepherd who chews through pretty much any toy you give him. He has very strong, destructive jaws. And, being very smart, he will find the weak point in a toy and go after it almost obsessively. He'll work tirelessly trying to chew it into submission.
I don't know how many toys we've gone through. We even did the subscription where they send you indestructible toys every month. Usually, they wouldn't make it until the next shipment. Any of them. And they sent three or four in the box.
Anyway, this is our second one of these. He does destroy it, but he's had this one for three months or better and it's just now really showing signs of deterioration. We'll be replacing it soon, but I'm very impressed compared to the countless other toys we've bought over the years.

Toy Not Safe For Chewers
Size: Medium 8", Style: Rubber Dog Toy, Size: Medium 8", Style: Rubber Dog Toy
We bought this tire toy for our puppy for Christmas. It was advertised as a natural rubber dog toy and implied to be durable. It lasted less than two hours.
Our puppy was able to chew off small pieces of the rubber and swallowed some of the bits, which made her extremely sick. She ended up vomiting after ingesting pieces of this toy. I would not recommend this toy, it is not safe especially for dogs that like to chew.

Nice big tire toy
Size: Large 10", Style: Rubber Dog Toy
Our dog has had a tire toy about the same size as this one for 2 years, but it's finally been worn down from his love and zest for it along with weather. When I saw this one, I got excited! Great size for our 80lb 3yo pittie and pretty tough too, although, it's beginning to show signs of wear in only 3 weeks of him playing with it. It's not nearly as rugged as his old rubber tire. We'll have to see how long it actually lasts before I say the price was worth it or not.

Great dog toy for large breeds!
Size: Large 10", Style: Rubber Dog Toy, Size: Large 10", Style: Rubber Dog Toy
My dog Judge is a 110-pound German Shepherd that loves this tire! It is not the traditional ball that dogs like to play with, but it is so much safer since larger breeds might choke on a ball, as it’s easier to swallow! Judge doesn't go anywhere without his tire! From an owner's standpoint, it’s great also since it’s easy to throw and roll as well as last longer than most toys since it’s made of thick rubber! Best toy for the money I have found by far! Judge has the size large 10”!
