Summary

Denmark, Finland, Norway, and Sweden, award-winning historian Ewan Butler writes, struggled through unions and separations with both outsiders and each other, developing their own personalities and languages yet retaining their ancient connections.

Nice Introduction to the History of the Region

I didn’t know anything about the region’s history and this gave me a good overview.

Great overview / introduction

Coming to Scandinavian history with very little prior knowledge, this audiobook was an excellent introduction to it for me. It gave a well-written overview of the countries’ varied and interesting history, with enough detail to whet my appetite to explore further. Matthew Lloyd Davies does a super job of reading this - lovely tone and pace.
