Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Story of Iceland IT is earnestly hoped that the readers of this little book will feel that they deal not with the dead. To bring home to them as far as possible the life of this past, stories and quotations from Icelandic books have been frequently given, and in most cases in the exact words of the translators. Sometimes, however, the tales have been abridged or simplified because this short history is chiefly written for children. The names of the writers to whom I am thus indebted will be found in the second index at the end of the book.

Download or read book Nor urfari Or Rambles in Iceland Classic Reprint written by Pliny Miles and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-10 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Norourfari or Rambles in Iceland A Preface to a book, is a sort of pedestal where the author gets up to make a speech; frequently an apologizing ground, where he "drops in - hopes he don't intrude;" a little strip of green carpet near the foot-lights, where he bows to the audience, and with a trembling voice asks them to look with lenient eyes on his darling bantling that is just coming before the world. Very likely he tells of the numerous difficulties and disadvantages under which he has labored; perhaps apologizes for his style, under the plea of writing against time, and that he has been greatly hurried. Readers and critics are usually indulgent towards the minor faults of an author, provided he entertains or instructs them; but they pay little attention to special pleadings. The writer who deliberately perpetrates a stupid or silly book, deserves the fate of dunces - obloquy and contempt. If he adds to this the double crime of setting up a justification, and askst hat his work be not subject to the usual canons of criticism, then the reviewers should level their heaviest guns, pepper him pungently, and prove him but a buzzard, while he claimed the honors of a game-cock. We however, have a right to expect and demand more from a veteran author, than from a young and inexperienced one.
