Magnus Jacob Crusenstolpe

Magnus Jacob Crusenstolpe (11 March 1795, Jönköping – 18 January 1865, Stockholm) was a Swedish historian. He became famous both as a political and a historical writer early in his career.^[1]

Crusenstolpe won considerable distinction with a series of historical-romantic tales, (Little Stories) but his fame rests mainly on his works as a journalist, historian, biographer, and politician. His works of fiction become to a degree political or progressive (see for example The House of Holstein-Gottorp in Sweden).^[2]
