Hilaire Belloc
Belloc visited Scandinavia as a young man and this book is an account of his return forty three years later. In this trip he noticed many things that concerned him, 'for they provoked in me, as travel always does, other thoughts, and other memories, and other speculations in a train of reflection and feeling, so that the whole little business when written down became a hotch-potch which the reader, if he will bear with it, must take or leave according to his mood.'
