JUTLAND follows the lives of two West Jutland families, from the Stone Age to the present.
As the characters struggle for survival, the breathtaking high points of Jutland’s story are woven together: its geographical origins in a tropical ocean to the development of salt deposits, limestone, flint and volcanic ash layers; from the formation of amber and its lure for Roman traders through the dynamic development of Bronze Age farmers to Viking explorers; from the arduous life of fjord-fishermen, farmers and cattle drovers to West Jutland’s pivotal role in the dramatic events of both World Wars.
A portrait of the development of a land and its people, JUTLAND traces the saga of a community fighting to establish its place in a bold and hostile environment.
