DANMARKS DRONNINGER (The Queens of Denmark). Fra Danebod Til Dorothea (From Danebod to Dorothea)

Author: Jenvold, Birgit
Year: 2000
Country or State of Origin: Denmark

The queens of Denmark have included a number of distinctive personalities, queens whose characters and whose fates have become significant features of Danish history. Because historical research has virtually ignored these women, the Koldinghus Museum has chosen to focus attention on Danish queens from the Viking period up to the Renaissance. With numerous illustrative artifacts, this exhibition emphasizes contemporary historical perceptions and the public presentation of these queens in the light of subsequent National Romantic attitudes. Includes a complete list of queens from the beginning of 900 until today and their lifespans in addition to a list of who they were married to and when.

DEFIANT COURAGE. A WWII Epic of Escape and Endurance

Author: Scott, Astid Karlsen & Dr. Tore Haug
Year: 2010
Country or State of Origin: New York

In late March 1943, in the midst of WWII, four Norwegian saboteurs arrived in northern Norway on a fishing cutter and set anchor in Toftefjord to establish a base for their operations. However, they were betrayed, and a German boat attacked the cutter, creating a battlefield and spiraling Jan Baalsrud into the adventure of his life. The only survivor and wounded, Baalsrud begins a perilous journey to freedom, swimming icy fjords, climbing snow-covered peaks, enduring snowstorms, and getting caught in a monstrous avalanche. Suffering from snowblindness and frostbite, more than sixty people of the Troms District risk their lives to help Baalsrud to freedom. Meticulously researched for more than five years, Karlsen Scott and Haug bring forth the truth behind this captivating, edge-of-your-seat, real-life survival story.
