Excerpt from Things Seen in Sweden

The growing interest in Sweden, which has steadily increased since the sensation caused by the Olympic Games in 1912, has induced me to write this little work on that picturesque, unfamiliar country, which since the days of Charles XII. Has ceased to be a first-class Power. Although no longer occupying the honoured place that was hers before she was involved in that gigantic and unequal struggle with Russia, Saxony, Prus sia, Denmark, and Norway, which stripped her of her position and territories on the Baltic, she, like other once great nations, is well worthy our attention and interest.
