What Has Sweden Done for the United States is a short title authored by Lars P. Nelson. This work provides a brief history of relations between the Scandinavian nation and the United States. Sweden and the U.S. are not two countries that are immediately thought to share a strong connection. While the two nations have long been friendly with one another, many individuals would have a difficult time naming one significant instance in which the countries directly worked together. The purpose of Nelson's book is thus to demonstrate that there is a long history of cooperation between Sweden and America. The book begins by examining the establishment of a trading company in Sweden that was authorized to work in what is now the United States. From there, the book examines early agreements between the two nations, Sweden's stance on the American Revolution, important diplomatic figures, and several more topics. At a mere thirty-eight pages, Nelson's overview merely scratches the surface of the subject matter. The author has managed to include a surprising amount of factual information into this title, however the essay reads more like a single chapter in a book than a fully realized work. The title is however a good starting point on the subject matter and will perhaps encourage readers to pursue further studies. The titular question posed by What Has Sweden Done for the United States? is indeed answered in Lars P. Nelson's book. For readers interested in a quick overview of the subject, or for those researching the topic but unsure where to begin, Nelson's work is a satisfying read.
