Andersen travels through Sweden by canal, road and steamer, describing the falls of Trollhätta, the hill of Kinnekulle, prison cells, beggar-boys and the old convent town of Vadstena. Between the travel sketches he slips in little tales and fancies, such as the bird phoenix and a grandmother’s memories.
