""Viking Tales of the North: The Sagas of Thorstein, Viking's Son and Fridthjof the Bold; Also, Tegner�������s Fridthjof�������s Saga"" is a book written by Rasmus B. Anderson and published in 1901. The book is a collection of two sagas, Thorstein, Viking's Son and Fridthjof the Bold, both of which are classic tales of Norse mythology. The first saga, Thorstein, Viking's Son, is a story about a young Viking who sets out on a journey to find his father, who was lost at sea. Along the way, Thorstein encounters many challenges and battles, including fighting against a giant sea serpent. The second saga, Fridthjof the Bold, is a love story about a Viking warrior who falls in love with a beautiful princess, Ingeborg. However, their love is challenged by Ingeborg's father, who disapproves of Fridthjof's lowly status. In addition to these two sagas, the book also includes Tegner's Fridthjof's Saga, which is a poem based on the same story as Fridthjof the Bold. The poem was originally written in Swedish by Esaias Tegn�����r and translated into English by Anderson. Overall, ""Viking Tales of the North: The Sagas of Thorstein, Viking's Son and Fridthjof the Bold; Also, Tegner�������s Fridthjof�������s Saga"" is a fascinating and entertaining read for anyone interested in Norse mythology and Viking culture.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
