The Story of Iceland, written by Letitia M. Maccoll and originally published in 1887, is a comprehensive historical account of Iceland from its earliest settlements to the late 19th century. The book is divided into several chapters, each covering a different period in Icelandic history, including the Viking Age, the Age of Settlement, the Commonwealth period, and the Christianization of Iceland. Maccoll's book provides a detailed examination of the social, political, and cultural developments that took place in Iceland over the centuries. She describes the country's unique political system, which was based on a decentralized system of chieftains, and the role of the Icelandic sagas in preserving the country's history and culture. The book also explores Iceland's relationship with other countries, particularly Norway and Denmark, and the impact of foreign rule on Icelandic society. Maccoll discusses the 17th century witch trials, the devastating impact of the 1783 Laki volcanic eruption, and the struggles of the Icelandic people to gain independence from Denmark in the late 19th century. Overall, The Story of Iceland is a fascinating and informative read for anyone interested in the history and culture of this unique and resilient country.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
