Publisher Description: Joanne Asala translates this collection from ancient myths. More than a thousand years have passed since the writing of the Havamal, the original title for this collection of poetic proverbs. Alledgedly given by Odin, Father of the Norse Gods, these words paint a clear picture of the heroic ethics, home life, and warrior code of the Viking Period. Illustrations from the Viking Age by Paul B. Du Chaillu. |
