Why read it?

1 author picked Um sannleiksgildi Íslendingasagna frá sjónarhóli kjötiðnaðarmanns as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

Sadly this book is now out of print, but hopefully, Snorri will create an updated and expanded edition in the near future. This book is a look at the Sagas of Icelanders, and particularly the combat in the sagas, from the perspective of a slaughterhouse worker, a perspective that only a butcher would have. In researching Vikings and their combat, one must intently look for experts who often are far outside one’s own field of expertise. Snorri’s book shows the benefits of an approach from a different perspective.
