Add to basket8vo, pp. 93, [1]; publisher's blue cloth; dustjacket in black and purple; a very good copy in a good jacket (edges worn); manuscript correction (by Karlsson?) on p. 92; bookplate of D.G. Bridson.First edition in English, comprising selected portions of Thórdarson's autobiographical Íslenskur aðall (1938), one of the few translat…ions of his work into English; a presentation copy from the editor: 'To Mr Geoffrey Bridson in Iceland, June 26, 1963. With best regards Kristján Karlsson'. In the summer of 1963 Bridson recreated William Morris's journey to Iceland for a radio programme first broadcast on 4 December: 'The charred rafters of Nja l's old steading at Bergtho rsva l seemed as unlikely to come upon as the cakes burnt by King Alfred, yet there they were to examine' (Prospero and Ariel). His own impressions of the country were broadcast as 'Talking of Iceland' on 16 Feb 1964, in which he discussed the changes since his last visit he had been there just shortly before the start of World War II, and in 1940 had broadcast a long feature about the country's discovery and its ancient democracy.
