Skånes historia
Skånes historia. Del. 1 : 11500 f. Kr. - 1375 e. Kr.
Skånes sak är vår
Skåne är mer än någon annan del av Sverige ett kulturlandskap. Hit kom de första människorna, här byggdes det nuvarande Sveriges första domkyrka och här grundlades tidigt ett universitet. Närheten till kontinenten och positionen som gynnat sjöfarten har gjort att Skåne snabbt påverkats av strömningar ute i Europa, samtidigt som det strategiska läget även gjort området utsatt och omstritt. Här har många av Nordens maktkamper utspelat sig, kungar har drabbat samman och kyrkan har deltagit i de världsliga intrigerna.
Gunnar Wetterberg har tagit sig an uppgiften att skriva Skånes historia, ända från den första bevarade bosättningen till idag. I denna första del av tre berättas om förhistorien, järnålderns och vikingatidens samhällen, medeltidens strider och maktkamper. Det är en hisnande resa, kunnigt och spännande skildrad och illustrerad med ett rikt bildmaterial. Perfekt läsning för skåningar, sommarboende på Österlen - eller alla med historieintresse.

Wetterberg is very engaging on TV when he talks of history. I would have loved to have him as a teacher.
I thought this book would be like one of his lectures, but this didn't sound like him at all. This book was so incredibly boring. I understand that it's harder to know about the old days, but why write so much nonsense about it? A few lines will suffice when there's not much to say.
After a while I shamelessly skimmed my way through it.
Some parts were interesting, but most were not.
I will read the next volume, since I think that period will be more interesting to read about, especially the Scanish wars and the making of my hometown.
