This is foolishness

A British light brigade cavalryman takes part in one of the bloodiest battles in the Crimea, an old sexton is an eyewitness to witch burnings in Groningen, a poor woman experiences one of the greatest storm surges in the Netherlands, and the Danish king looks back on his eventful life.
Each time, the main characters face difficult, sometimes unavoidable choices. Will they succeed in making the right decision or will they be swallowed up by the foolishness of others?
The stories in this collection are based on historical facts, with imaginative additions by the author.
