Contents SHB contains references to literature on Swedish history in a broad sense of the term. It covers regions which have been under Swedish rule, i.e. Finland, parts of present day Baltic States, Germany and Poland, as well as Swedish colonies in other parts of the world. References to history and theory, methodology, and historiographical surveys are also included if the works are published in Sweden.
