""A Visit to Iceland and the Scandinavian North"" is a travelogue written by Madame Ida Pfeiffer, a 19th-century Austrian explorer and writer. The book details her journey through Iceland, Norway, Sweden, and Denmark, providing a vivid and detailed account of the landscapes, people, and cultures she encountered along the way. Pfeiffer's writing is both informative and engaging, offering readers a glimpse into the unique customs and traditions of the region. She describes her experiences with the locals, including her interactions with the Sami people of Norway and Sweden, as well as her observations of the natural wonders of the area, such as the geysers and glaciers of Iceland. ""A Visit to Iceland and the Scandinavian North"" is a fascinating and informative read for anyone interested in travel, history, or cultural exploration.A besetting sin of the Icelanders is their drunkenness. Their poverty would probably not be so great if they were less devoted to brandy, and worked more industriously. It is dreadful to see what deep root this vice has taken. Not only on Sundays, but also on week-days, I met peasants who were so intoxicated that I was surprised how they could keep in their saddle. I am, however, happy to say that I never saw a woman in this degrading condition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
