I knew this was going to be a winner when I saw it. Love to learn about the "Vasa" times in Sweden. The Sture family is a huge part of the history and is a crutial part when talking about pretty much everything. The book was informative and very readable and I loved rereading what I already knew and learn new things (I have a difficult time learning things even if I'm very interested in it). It's very skillfully written that really makes the reading experience exciting and keep you courious at all times. I highly recommend this book.
