Gu瀇ur's Saga (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780228872436)

This is the illustrated story of Gu瀇ur, from the Icelandic saga of Erik the Red and the Greenland sagas. She travelled with the Vikings to Greenland after 1000 CE, and settled in Vinland in North America a few years later. Gu瀇ur gave birth to the first European child known to be born in North America. Her story, written by Brynd﨎 V刕lundsdtir and illustrated by Gay Strandemo, charts her travels and adventures from Iceland to Greenland, Vinland, and all the way to Rome on a pilgrimage she made in later life. Gu瀇ur is an inspiring Icelandic character to the women of Iceland and all who admire the spirit of adventure.
