A History of the Swedish People: From Prehistory to the Renaissance

In the second volume of his vivid history of the Swedes, Vilhelm Moberg, doyen of the Swedish literary scene and author of bestselling epic novels, brings his great historical knowledge to bear on a period which for various reasons he has closely at heart. Moberg's sympathy for the commons are fanned by the dramatic stories of two great revolts which. in the later Middle Ages, contributed to make Sweden what it is.
