A BOOK ABOUT SWEDEN 
A surprising amount of definite and re¬ 
liable information is condensed in A Booh 
about Sweden just issued by the Swedish 
Traffic Association, which has recently estab¬ 
lished an office in New York. The geography 
of the country, its history from the earliest 
times till the reign of Gustav V, its chief in¬ 
dustries, its art and science, its most interest¬ 
ing sights and famous institutions such as the 
Northern Museum and the Nobel Institute, 
its great men and women from St. Birgitta 
to Hjalmar Branting, all these are dealt with, 
in bird’s eye fashion necessarily, but still 
adequately. The book is of convenient size 
for carrying in a traveling bag, and with its 
maps and illustrations and its full informa¬ 
tion about transportation and hotels, is in¬ 
tended primarily for the traveler, but it will 
also be found a compact reference book for 
any one interested in Sweden. Almost every¬ 
thing one would like to know about in Sweden 
from the Rorstrand porcelain to the Ling sys¬ 
tem of gymnastics receives some mention, and 
always in an elucidating fashion.
