Njáls Saga - Anonymous; Dasent, George W. (Translator)

Clean, tight, unmarked; slight warping to inside of back cover and last page not visible from exterior; otherwise spine straight and uncreased; very minimal wear; appears unread; Translation by George W. Dasent; In the most unlikely setting, during devastating winters and unimaginably harsh conditions, some of Europe's most celebrated literature was born. In 13th century Iceland, stories about the heroic Vikings that first settled the country were recorded. The undisputed masterpiece among the Sagas is Njáls Saga, a spine-chilling story of love, honour, revenge and patriotism, vividly describing the lives of a host of memorable characters, ranging from respected arbitrators and lawyers to deadly warriors and fighters. The Sagas inspired the works of J.R.R. Tolkien.
