Lars Ericson Wolke, professor emeritus in military history at the Swedish Military Academy, gives his review of the book The Kings Men. The Drabant Corps of Charles XII:
"To discover archival documents that contributes to change the context of a particular history is something almost every historian dreams of. Some few are lucky enough to experience this; Stefan Ingesson at the National Archive in Vadstena is one of these few."
Dag Lindström, Uppsala University
Dag Lindström from Uppsala University has reviewed Stefan Ingesson's book The Kings Men. The Drabant Corps of Charles XII in Historiska Tidskrifter. Dag writes that the book is well written and that the language is clear and easy to understand:
"The book is richly illustrated. This helps to make it aesthetically pleasing, but above all, the visual material is an important support for both storytelling and argumentation."
Dick Harrison, Lund University
Dick Harrison, professor of history at Lund University gives his opinion on Stefan Ingesson's book The Kings Men. The Drabant Corps of Charles XII:
"That's why I'm so surprised, and happy, when I read Stefan Ingesson's equally scientifically sound and well-written The Kings Men, an in-depth analysis and presentation of the army's supreme elite, Charles XII's own Drabant Corps"
Christer Olsson, BJT booklet
editor at the BTJ booklet, reviews the book The Kings Men. The Drabant Corps of Charles XII:
"The reader gets an excellent overall picture of the drabant corps regarding, for example, the corps' history, organization, equipment, service, operations in battle and the time in captivity. Ingesson has also written an interesting personal list of all the drabants."
PhD, Doctor of Philosophy, Ingemar Nordgren
Phd, Ingemar Nordgren reviews the writing Goths and Scandinavia. Myth or reality. An investigation of the Gotho-Scandinavian relations:
"Stefan Ingesson's writing The Goths and Scandinavia-myth or reality is an very important writing as it summarizes facts from the latest research results both on an international level and a national level. It also covers the entire history of research dealing with the Goth. This means that the article provides a total review of all significant people who were active during the early Iron Age migration period and their emergence from the Bronze Age."
