Ride This Night (Swedish:Rid i natt) is a Swedish historical novel by Vilhelm Moberg which was first published in 1941. The novel is set in the Seventeenth century, portraying Sweden as being occupied by the Germans. The novel attempted to foment anti-German sentiment in neutral Sweden by drawing a parallel with Germany's occupation of much of Europe during the Second World War, even though Germany never tried to occupy Sweden.
