history from the Viking Age to the 1930s. It emphasizes Norwegian respect for law and freedom.

literature, with particular emphasis on the work of Ludvig Holberg, Henrik Wergeland, Henrik
Ibsen, and Bjørnstjerne Bjørnson.

petroleum, Oslo, 1999 (UHS)
Midgaard, J., A Brief History of Norway, Oslo, 1989 (UHS)

(NBO)
The Norwegian government, economy, foreign relations, and way of life is described by Fabian Society
members invited to visit Norway in 1948 by the Norwegian Labour Party. The volume focuses on the
positive aspects of Norwegian life perhaps for this reason, but is nevertheless an interesting examination

The Nordic Enigma, Daedalus, Vol 113, No 1, 1984 (UHS)
Two issues of the journal were devoted to a discussion of contemporary Scandinavia. They were
published to commemorate the observance of „Scandinavia Today‟ in the United States during 1982 –

first contains articles by respected scholars on a variety of economic, social, cultural, and political
issues.
Nordic voices, Daedalus, Vol 113, No 2, 1984 (UHS)
This is the second consecutive issue of the journal devoted to Scandinavia, and consists of eight articles

more analytical than descriptive, more critical and reflecting a greater sense of uncertainty about
Scandinavia‟s future.

desiring a union of Denmark, Norway, and Sweden and those fearing further Swedish
encroachment within the union and hoping for independence. The work also includes ten
appendixes.

Discusses the part played by Sigurd Ibsen in the promotion during the late 1890s, of an
independent Norway governed by a „national‟ monarchy. His major contribution was to make
such an idea acceptable to a large number of Norwegians and he was therefore instrumental in the
creation of such a government in 1905.

The first part of this study is of greatest interest as far as Norway is concerned because it deals
with Norway‟s declaration of independence in 1905 and the Integrity Treaty that it eventually
negotiated with the Great Powers. The second part describes Sweden‟s difficulties as it was caught
between competing Russian and German interests in the Baltic during the same period.
Lindgren, R.E., Norway-Sweden, union, disunion, and Scandinavian integration,
Westport, Conn., 1979 (UBIT)
The theme is the pressure in Norway on the union with Sweden during the 19th century and its
dissolution in 1905. First printed in 1959 (this edition is available at UHS) this is the chief source
in English on the subject. The final chapter considers the crisis from 1905 to 1908 over Norway‟s
desire for an integrity treaty from the Great Powers and Nordic co-operation from that time until
the late 1950s.

A study of the specific political and economic interests of Finland, Sweden, Norway, and
Denmark, including their many successful attempts to cooperate with each other, and the
difficulties they have had in extending this mutual cooperation as a group to wider European
economic and political associations. Extensive consideration is given to the abortive efforts to
create Nordek, a Nordic free trade association, the establishment of the European Free Trade Area
(EFTA) and in particular the policies each established towards the EEC in the early 1970s. In
addition to specific references to Norway‟s role and interests in these events throughout the book,
the author devotes an entire chapter to Norway‟s rejection of membership of the EEC.

An analytical examination of Norwegian foreign policy with respect to the USA, Britain and the
USSR. Udgaard traces three major developments during the period: The abandonment of pre-war
neutrality by commitments made early in the war to Britain and the US for cooperation not only
during the war but afterwards as well; the bridgebuilding policy begun later in the war out of
concern for the reestablishment of Soviet power in the North; and the reassessment of this policy
in 1947 which led later to Norway‟s adherence to NATO. Contains an extensive bibliography.

Studies the different forms of neutrality practised during the period, offering the United States and
the Scandinavian countries as contrasting studies. Norway figure prominently in the work as the
country‟s neutrality was tested severely during the First World War, and it was unable to remain
neutral in 1940, due to the German invasion.

pre-occupied with Norway‟s increasing strategic importance; the efforts of Vidkun Quisling and
German military officials to impose the „New Order‟ on Norway; Norway‟s government-in-exile
in London; the Norwegian contribution to the Allied war effort; and the post-war legal

Hewins, Ralph, Quisling: Prophet without honour, London, 1965 (UHS)
A biography exonerating Quisling‟s motives and conduct both before and during the German
occupation in the Second World War. It de-emphasizes the similarity of his views with those of
Hitler and their pre-war association and maintains that Quisling not only possessed the most
honourable and wise policy for Norway before the war but also tried to maintain Norway‟s
independence within the German Reich. This is a controversial work representing an extreme
position in the post-war research and discussion on Qusling.

several documents from the period.
Koht, Halvdan, Norway: Neutral and invaded, London, 1941 (UHS)

itself, the government‟s activities while still in Norway, and its reestablishment in England during
the summer of 1940. The author was Norway‟s Foreign Minister during the crisis and this work
offers interesting perspectives on the period. An appendix reprints relevant documents from the
spring and summer of 1940.
Lehmkuhl, Herman K., Hitler attacks Norway, Montreal, 1943 (NBO)

dimensions, London, 1966 (UHS)
An analysis of the war in Norway in 1940 which was the first occasion when all three dimensions
of warfare on land, air, and sea were involved. The emphasis is on the non-Norwegian combatants,
and the successful tactics employed by the Germans in all three dimensions, and the mistakes
made by the British and French. Contains a valuable bibliography not only of Norwegian sources
but also of important British secondary sources, such as regimental histories. An interesting final
chapter on the Battle of Guadacanal in the Pacific during the Second World War serves as a
„yardstick‟ to measure the validity of the author‟s thesis. The work should be particularly valuable
to those who require a detailed military history of the war in Norway.
Nansen, Odd, From day to day, New York, 1949 (UBIT)
A diary kept by the author, the son of Fridtjof Nansen, after his arrest by the Germans on 13
January 1942 until 28 April 1945. The first part of his imprisonment was spent in Norway and in
October 1943 he was transferred to Germany. An interesting portrayal of prison life during the
Nazi rule of Norway. Nansen had been a supporter of Quisling‟s movement for a short time during
the 1930s although this is not considered in the book.

and occupation of Denmark and Norway, the resistance movements, liberation in 1945, and the
unsuccessful attempts to establish a Nordic security pact after the war. Two Norwegian historians
participated in the project; Ole Kristian Grimnes contributed „The Beginnings of the resistance
movement‟ and Berit Nøkleby wrote „Adjusting to Allied victory.‟ A detailed and partially
annotated bibliography is particularly useful.

government-in-exile in London.

most of this period and, as a party leader, was highly aware of developments there.
Wright, Myrtle, Norwegian diary 1940 – 1945, London, 1974 (NBO)
Wright was an English representative of Friends Service Council of the Society of Friends in
Great Britain who happened to be inn Oslo on 9 April 1940 and was forced to remain there until
her escape to Sweden in 1944. She provides an interesting report of daily life in Norway during
the German occupation from the standpoint of an outsider who became an insider as a result of her
experiences.

Ziemke, Earl F., The German Northern theatre of operations 1940 – 1945, in U.S. army.
Department of the army pamphlet, No 20-271, Washington DC, 1959 (UHS)
A narrative of German military operations in Norway and Finland during the Second World War.

of the work studies the German presence in both countries from a common perspective until the
end of the war. One of the most detailed discussions of the Second World War in English
highlighting German activities.

Collections of Primary Sources
Curtis, Monica (ed.), Documents on international affairs: Norway and the war September
1939 – December 1940, in Documents on international affairs, London, 1941 (UJUR)
An important selection of primary sources divided into three sections. Section one contains
documents outlining Norway‟s neutral status prior to the war. Section two covers the crisis
precipitated by the Altmark affair of February 1940, when British naval forces entered Norwegian
waters to rescue prisoners of war from the German ship. The chapter also considers the mining of
80
Norwegian territorial waters by Britain and France when Norway‟s neutrality seemed threatened
as much by these powers as by Germany. The larger section of the work contains documents from
the Norwegian government relating to Germany‟s invasion of Norway in 1940 and the efforts that
were subsequently made to supplant the country‟s legal government. All non-English documents,
except for one French document, have been translated into English.
