About This Book

A traveler's collection of sketches recounts journeys through Denmark, Sweden, and Norway, describing cities, fjords, islands, canals, rail and steam voyages, village life, Arctic experiences, glaciers, the midnight sun, local customs, food, inns, and practical travel details. Chapters alternate city sketches (Copenhagen, Stockholm, Upsala), canal and coastal passages, mountain walks, fjord excursions, and northern voyages to Tromsø and the North Cape. The tone mixes practical guidance—routes, lodging, transport—with personal observations of landscape grandeur, folk customs, and everyday scenes, aiming to inform prospective travelers while conveying the author's enthusiasm for scenery, culture, and the challenges and delights of travel in the North.
