• Format: PDF

This book examines Austrian Protestants who resisted the Habsburg Counterreformation in the early 17th century. Since the climax of their activism coincided with the Swedish intervention in the Thirty Years' War, it also analyzes Swedish policy and the resulting Austro-Swedish interrelationship.
