The travels of Reverend Olafur Egilsson, translated by Karl Smari Hreinsson and Adam Nichols.
The combination of Reverend Olafur’s narrative, the letters, and the material in the Appendices provides a first-hand, in-depth view of early seventeenth-century Europe and the Maghreb equaled by few other works dealing with the period.
