Between 1940 and 1945, German occupiers of Norway plotted to turn the Scandinavian country into a racial utopia. From ideal new cities to a scenic superhighway stretching from Berlin to northern Norway, these plans for a model "Aryan" society fired the imaginations of Hitler and his architect Albert Speer. Drawing on unpublished diaries, photographs, maps, and newspapers, Despina Stratigakos provides a history of Nazi efforts to found a Nordic empire—one that they believed would improve their genetic stock and confirm their destiny as a new order of Vikings.
