Excerpt from In Viking Land, or a Summer Tour in NorwayWhile in Norway, I kept a diary for my own amusement and future reference, but had no intention of writing for publication. It is only at the request of many friends that I tender them this little volume, knowing that I have not done my subject justice, but trusting that it will convey to them some of the pleasure that is experienced in so full a measure by every lover of nature who visits Norseland.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from A Voyage to Viking-Land The following pages are all an introduction to one of the loveliest countries of the Old World which it has been the pleasure of the writer to visit. It is the itinerary of a most delightful voyage along the coast of Norway of a happy party of tourists, who, on pleasure bent, were blessed with an excellent steamer, fine weather, good appetites, and a capacity for enjoyment only limited by the daily supply which the circum stances offered. It was like cruising in one's own yacht, without its responsibilities and cares. The glories of the silent fjords, the wonderful glaciers, and the majestic water falls, were seen to their very best advantage, while few tourists to this region obtain such unobstructed views of the splendours of the midnight sun. With the exception of the portraits, almost all of the illustra tions are reproduced from photographs taken by the writer on the trip, the larger portion from the steamer's deck while sailing through the fjords, and along the shores.

Excerpt from The Viking Bodleys: An Excursion Into Norway and Denmark N ow that reminds me, said Charles. I was not going to ask a question at all, as Sarah supposed. I was going to make a philo Sophical remark. Cousin Ned Adams used to have a good deal to say about the influence of the New World upon the Old. I 'd like to know if it is n't a fine thing for a steamer running between Hull and Christiania to be named after a boy in an American story book Mr. Bodley laughed.

Excerpt from The Fjords and Folk of Norway The geographical position of Norway, while affording all the grandeur and the stimulating rigour of the north, yet combines with it during the summer months, a mild and invigorating climate and a luxurious and varied vegetation unequalled in any northern country. It offers, too, a diversity of attractions. To the traveller and the nature lover, it throws open a region of natural as well as artistic beauty. On its mountains, and in its ice-carved valleys, the climber and the scientist find sport in plenty, and flora, fauna, and geological formation of the greatest interest and importance, while the fjords, lakes, and rivers offer unparalleled fishing possibilities. In the variety of its scenery may be observed nature in her severest moods: beautiful both under the stormy wind-swept sky or glorified by the sun; or the gentler beauties of green-walled valleys, rural homesteads, and the infinite charm of mountains, lakes, fjords, turbulent rivers, glaciers, forests, and the atmos pheric effects peculiar to these latitudes - factors which, with her nightless summers, combine in making Norway a land in every way ideal for holiday travel. Norway is to-day not only open to the traveller and the tourist, but it can ofier them a hospitality, a culture, and a civilisationwhich is of the most enlightened and advanced in Europe. As already stated, the sea has been the supreme modifier and developer of Norway, and the sea is, therefore, the appropriate highway by which Norway should be entered, and it is to this Norway of the sea, with its great and beautiful coast region, and of those true-born sons of the sea who people its shores, that the succeeding pages are devoted. Some association with Viking times is sure to confront the visitor to Norway's shores, and this, together with the increased, and increasing, interest in the civilisation of the Viking age, has been the inducement to dwell at some length on this absorbing subject in the historical section, and to add some notes of life in those times.

Excerpt from The Early Kings of Norway The beginning of his great adventure was of a romantic character - youthful love for the beautiful Gyda, a then glori ous and famous young lady of those regions, whom the young Harald aspired to marry. Gyda answered his embassy and prayer in a distant, lofty manner: Her it would not be seem to wed any J arl or poor creature of that kind let him do as Gorm Of Denmark, Eric of Sweden, Egbert of Eng land, and others had done, - subdue into peace and regula tion the confused, contentious bits of jarls around him, and become a king; then, perhaps, she might think of his pro posal till then, not.' Harald was struck with this proud answer, which rendered Gyda tenfold more desirable to him. He vowed to let his hair grow, never to cut or even to comb it till this feat were done, and the peerless Gyda his own. He proceeded accordingly to conquer, in fierce battle, a Jarl or two every year, and at the end of twelve years had his nu kempt (and almost unimaginable) head of hair clipt Off - Jarl rognwald (reginald) Of Mere, the most valued and valuable of all his subject-jarls, being promoted to this sublime bar ber function after which King Harald, with head thoroughly cleaned, and hair grown, or growing again to the luxuriant beauty that had no equal in his day, brought home his Gyda, and made her the brightest queen in all the North. He had after her, in succession, or perhaps even simultaneously in some cases, at least six other wives and by Gyda herself one daughter and four sons.

Excerpt from Viking Tales They are not learning much. What will make them brave and wise? What will teach them to love their country and old Norway? Will not the stories of battles, of brave deeds, of mighty men, do this? So, as the family worked in the red fire-light, the father told of the kings of Norway, of long voyages to strange lands, of good fights. And in farmhouses all through Iceland these old tales were told over and over until everybody knew them and loved them. Some men could sing and play the harp. This made the stories all the more interesting. People called such men skalds, and they called their songs sagas.
