Norway and the Union with Sweden

by Fridtjof Nansen

This book, 'Norway and the Union with Sweden' by Fridtjof Nansen, delves into the complex political landscape of Norway's union with Sweden during the 19th century. It provides a detailed account of the political machinations, diplomatic maneuvering, and growing nationalist sentiments that ultimately led to the dissolution of the union in 1905. Nansen, a prominent Norwegian explorer and diplomat, offers insights into the historical events that shaped the relationship between the two Scandinavian nations. He explores the impact of the union on Norwegian identity, the rise of nationalism in Norway, and the diplomatic efforts that culminated in Norway's regained independence.
