XX The novel begins with a portrait of young Carl and his family. Because of all the exciting stories about the rich farmland of Texas, Carl and his sister Christina set sail from Southern Sweden after celebrating Walpurgis Night. They arrive at Castle Garden and after being admitted into the United States, they explore New York City. They next board a steamer which will arrive in Galveston, Texas in four days. Warmly greeted by a Swedish pastor, they are soon on a train bound for central Texas. Christina stays in Austin to work for the family that paid her travel expenses and Carl continues on to his brother's farm near Brushy (eventually to be New Sweden) in northeast Travis County 25 miles from Austin. The young boy must learn to deal with new things in his surroundings: getting sunburned, encountering crop-destroying grasshoppers, killing a rattlesnake, and eating turnips. On Sundays he goes with his brother's family to a nearby Evangelical Lutheran church with services in Swedish. Carl's brother raises cotton and is doing well enough to plan on buying more land. Carl works on a neighbor's farm on Saturdays for money, but he soon realizes that he will need to learn English in order to do well in this new country. There are many new things to learn: picking and baling cotton, taking it to the cotton gin for money, shopping in Georgetown, getting more appropriate clothes for the Texas climate, exploring a cave for gold with a new friend Gusten, watching a cattle drive come through Georgetown, trying to ride a wild horse, getting homesick, learning English, celebrating Thanksgiving with neighbors, being taunted by ?American? boys, enjoying a traditional Swedish Christmas with his brother and sister-in-law and sister Christina, selling his carved birds in Georgetown, and successfully learning to deal with local storekeepers. By the end of the book Carl feels confident that he will do well in Texas. A work of fiction, HEJ TEXAS was inspired by the life of Claus Munson who came to Texas as a 15-year-old in 1880.?
