Scandinavia At War With The Trolls

Tony Griffiths' Scandinavia is an introduction to the history, politics and culture of Sweden, Finland, Norway, and Denmark, from the Napoleonic era to the present. Compact, sharp, and accessible, the book brings to life the modern history of the region, demolishing national stereotypes in the process. No other book illuminates so tellingly the events and personalities of modern Scandinavia, including artists, musicians, and intellectuals such as Ibsen, Bergman, Kierkegaard, Munch, and Sibelius. This combination of a detailed look at Scandinavian culture and politics within a concise and thorough history makes this book the first and only of its kind, and unravels the mysteries and misunderstandings of this region and its people.Griffiths, Tony is the author of 'Scandinavia At War With The Trolls', published 2004 under ISBN 9781403967534 and ISBN 1403967539.
