The Heroes of Asgard: Tales From Scandinavian Mythology (Classic Reprint) by Annie Keary

Excerpt from The Heroes of Asgard: Tales From Scandinavian Mythology In preparing the Second Edition of this little volume of tales from the Northern Mythology for the press, the authors have thought it advisable to omit the conversations at the beginning and end of the chapters, which had been objected to as breaking the course of the narrative. They have carefully revised the whole, corrected many inaccuracies and added fresh information drawn from sources they had not had an opportunity of consulting when the volume first appeared. The writers to whose works the Authors have been most indebted, are Simrock, Mallet, Laing, Thorpe, Howitt and Dasent.
