Neutral Norway up to the Second World War

This episode covers the period picks up directly from the end of the last episode at the end of the First World War, through the interwar period and up to the German invasion of April 1940.

Special thanks to some of this podcast's reading material: Olav Riste’s 2001: Norway's Foreign Relations : A History, Patrick Salmon’s comparative work Scandinavia and the Great Powers, 1890-1940 as well as his chapter in the edited collection European Neutrals and non-belligerents during the Second World War. ‘Norwegian Neutrality and the Question of Credibility’ in the Scandinavian Journal of History is well worth reading as is the relevant chapter in the ever excellent Small Powers in the Age of Total War. Apologies to those I have neglected to mention!
