Author's Introductory Remarks.

The following work is intended to give an insight into the
Swedish-Norwegian Crisis. It has been the Author's endeavour to attain
this object, partly by a condensed account of the events of the last few
years, partly by a collection of suitable extracts from documents
referring to this crisis. Choice in the last items has been confined to
the most important ones. Touching the Consular negotiations only the
discussions on the most disputed points are given.

In dealing with some of the statements in Nansen's brochure the author
does not intend a exhaustive criticism of the said work, but has only
tried to show, by a few instances, the treatment pure and distinct facts
have been submitted to, in these days, by Norwegian agitation. The number
of instances could be multiplied many times over. If the following
representation has caught the tone of present feeling in Sweden, it must
be excused. The Author is, however, convinced that this has not
disadvantageously affected his account of the actual facts of the case.

Upsala. August 1905.
