		This same example can be used to demonstrate the occasional presence of factual and interpretational errors, particularly with regard to the political and diplomatic context of the war.
		Danish foreign policy in the 1630s and 1640s is incorrectly represented as being "covertly pro-Imperial and anti-Swedish"; the Danish-Swedish naval battle at Kolberger Heide is mistakenly labeled a Swedish defeat.
		Particularly on matters of politics and grand strategy, it should be approached with caution, and would be best used in conjunction with one of the standard survey histories of the conflict.[4] Readers looking for a thorough bibliographical treatment will still have to look elsewhere.
