Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The White Wolf and Other Fireside Tales In the early summer of 1358, with the breaking up of the ice, there came to Brattahlid, in Greenland, a merchant-ship from Norway, with provisions for the Christian settlements on the coast. The master´s name was Snorri Gamlason, and it happened that as he sailed into Eric´s Fiord and cast anchor opposite the town, word was brought to him that the Bishop of Garda had arrived that day in Brattahlid, to hold a confirmation. Whereupon this Snorri went ashore at once, and, getting audience of the Bishop, gave him a little book, with an account of how he had come by it. The book was written in Danish, and Snorri could not understand a word of it, being indeed unable to read or to write; but he told his tale: - About three weeks before his ship had run into a calm, which lasted for three days and two nights, and with a northerly drift she fell away, little by little, towards a range of icebergs which stretched across and ahead of them in a solid chain.
