Warrior Dynasty: The Rise & Fall of Sweden as a Military Superpower 1611-1721/Launde, Henrick. Paperback, pub. 2020, 312 p, b&w illustrations. There has been a recent trend in history to interpret the rise and fall of great powers in terms of economics, or demographics, or geography. This is not always true, as this book proves, because sometimes pure military skill can propel a nation to prominence, if it is simply able to crush all its opponents on a battlefield. No better example arises than that of Sweden beginning in the 17th century, which held supremacy over Northern Europe for 100 years without any technological, geographic or demographic advantages at all.£15.99
