What's This Podcast
About?

Delve into the rich and intricate history of the Norwegian People through this comprehensive two-volume work by Knut Gjerset. Born in Western Norway in 1865, Gjerset immigrated to Chippewa County, Minnesota, with his family in 1871, where his brother Oluf would later serve in public office. With a B.A. in Literature from the University of Minnesota and further studies at Johns Hopkins University and the University of Heidelberg, where he earned his PhD, Gjerset brings a scholarly lens to this fascinating narrative. The first volume chronicles Norwegian history from prehistoric times to the early 14th century, exploring captivating topics such as prehistoric cultures, the Viking era, the Christianization of Norway, early kings, Norways role in the Crusades, and significant foreign policy developments leading into the Late Middle Ages. - Summary by Ürik Bj∏rnsson
