Good to very good copy in dust jacket. Some roughness to top corner of front free endpaper where a pencil price has been erased. Blurb from dust jacket: "Francis Berry has travelled widely in Greenland, and has drawn on this experience to 'edit and translate' the supposed autobiography of Ingolf Brandsson. Largely attested by saga, historical document and archaeological find, it tells of Ingolf's emigration from Iceland to Greenland as a child and of his lifetime's experiences in that country. These experiences the conversion of Greenland to Christianity and his participation in the Norse expedition to VinlandThe narrative provides fascinating reading for all those interested in Old Icelandic Sagas and in medieval history, particularly the early Norse expeditions from Greenland to Canada and the United States." $8.50 Box 7171
