So the best skalds traveled much and visited many people. Their songs made them welcome everywhere. They were always honored with good seats at a feast. They were given many rich gifts. Even the King of Norway would sometimes send across the water to Iceland, saying to some famous skald: "Come and visit me. You shall not go away empty-handed. Men say that the sweetest songs are in Iceland. I wish to hear them."

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.

Excerpt from Viking Tales of the North: The Sagas of Thorstein, Viking's Son, and Fridthjof the Bold; Also, Tegner's Fridthjof's Saga The Legend of Fridthjof the Valiant is the noblest poetic contribution which Sweden has yet made to the literary history of the world. - Henry Wadsworth Longfellow.

In der Fridthjof's Sage verehrt das schwedische Volk seine lieblischste und beruhmteste National-dichtung. - Gottlieb Mohmike, in the preface to the ninth edition of his German translation of the poem.

Excerpt from A Viking's Love: And Other Tales of the North Her writings are all morally wholesome, for both the virtues and the vices of her Viking heroes are those of their own times. In the eyes of a Viking, the slaughter of an enemy was not a crime, but a noble and righteous deed; and on the other hand, he would cheerfully lay down his life for a friend.

Excerpt from The Story of Rolf, and the Vikings Bow From thirty to sixty years ago appeared the greater number of the English translations of the Icelandic sagas. Since then the reading of these heroic tales has so completely gone out of style that their names are rarely mentioned in schools or even colleges. What boy feels his blood stir at the mention of Grettir? How many lovers of good reading know that the most human of all epics lie untouched on the shelves of the public libraries?

These selected paragraphs distill the contents and give you a quick look inside: EVERY day the boy Harald heard some such story of war or of the gods, until he could see Thor riding among the storm-clouds and throwing his hammer, until he knew that a brave man has many wounds, but never a one on his back. ...After breakfast the next morning the guests went out and stood by their horses ready to go, but before they mounted, thralls brought a horn of mead to each man. ...And many of King Harald's warriors walked the long, hard road to Valhalla, and feasted there with some of these very vikings that had died in King Harald's battles. But after many hard fights on land and sea, after many men had died and many had fled away to other lands, King Harald won, and he made the men that were yet[100] in the islands take the oath, and he left his earls to rule over them. ...I should like to stand on a hill and look around on a wide land and think, 'This is all ours, ' and out upon a rough sea and think, 'Far off there are our foes and they dare not come over to us.'
