Introduction Welcome to the eighth edition of The Date-A-Base Book! As always, every entry has been cross-checked in Encyclopaedia Britannica and on official websites and other sources. This is not an easy process as there’s an awful lot of “disinformation” out there, and it’s definitely getting worse. Whenever there was doubt – which there frequently was – we’ve tried to go back to the original source. Even so, we advise you to double-check each date before using it, and satisfy yourself that it is 100% correct. If you come across any mistakes please let us know. We’ll post any corrections we hear about on the official ideas4writers blog: http://ideas4writers.wordpress.com As far as possible we’ve used New Style (NS) dates from the Gregorian calendar. Celebrities are notorious for knocking a few years off their ages. Wherever possible we’ve given both their real and claimed dates of birth, and noted which is which. Similarly, they don’t always go by their real names, so we’ve used the names by which they are most commonly known.

Tack 59 2 1. Inledning Sverige intog vid krigsutbrottet 1939 officiellt en neutral hållning till konflikten i Europa. Sverige skulle enligt denna neutralitet inte ta ställning för någon av de krigförande parterna och genom ett härefter skickligt säkerhets- och utrikespolitiskt spel undslapp vi svenskar – men likväl även alla som tagit tillflykt till vårt land – världskrigets fasor. Per Albin Hanssons samlingsregering är värd allt beröm för denna bed- rift där partipolitiken tillfälligt lades åt sidan för landets och befolkningens bästa. Att denna politiska balansgång många gånger tänjde på neutraliteten är välkänt – tyska tåg- och fartygstransiteringar, tvek- samma kullageraffärer, utbildning av norska och danska soldater samt allierade baser på svensk mark är bara några exempel på vad som försiggick inom Sveriges gränser. Allt detta skedde med regeringens goda minne – allt för Sveriges bästa. Den svenska säkerhets- och utrikespolitiken under beredskapsåren utgjordes av ett nödvändigt – men inte alltid vackert – spel. Sverige var trots kriget ingen isolerad ö i norra Europa – varken vid krigsutbrottet 1939 eller vid freden 1945.
