Biography
In the ongoing process of indexing the Icelandic sagas, I have worked with other forms of Nordic tales from sources not yet available in English. I want to make these stories available to readers who otherwise would not know of them, their fascinating themes and origins.

An English translation of the 1919 German compilation of old Icelandic short tales and legends originally published by Åge Avenstrup & Elisabeth Treitel.
Most of these tales take place in actual locales in Iceland that still exist today, so most of these tales now include locator maps of the places in Iceland where these tales are set.
