An excellent short dive into #Norway‘s history by an American history professor in Minnesota.

From my review here on Litsy 5 years ago: An enjoyable easy and enlightening read about the history of Norway. Be prepared for a brutally honest take on Norway's bewildering actions leading up to invasion during ww2. #foodandlit

This provides a very thorough view of Norway's history. It is an entertaining read even though it includes a great deal of information. It made my family's visit to Norway much better as I was better able to plan our trip and be our tour guide of sorts while there.
