| Title: Bishops in Early Iceland |
| Translated by: Theodore M Andersson Edited by: Alison Finlay, Carl Phelpstead |
| ISBN10-13: 1914070011 : 9781914070013 |
| The four translations assembled here are intended to supplement the early Bishops Sagas that are already easily available in translation. The texts included are Hungrvaka (Foretaste), Páls saga byskups (The Saga of Bishop Páll Jónsson), Oddaverja þáttr (An Account of the People at Oddi) and Prestssaga Guðmundar góða (The Priesthood of Bishop Guðmundr Góði). All have been dated to the first years of the thirteenth century. Together with the Viking Societys edition of þorláks saga byskups (2013), they typify the first emergence of saga writing and show how the evolution of saga composition began. The texts are translated by Theodore M. Andersson who also provides a full introduction. The book includes a bibliography and index of names. |

| Title: Book of Settlements |
| Sub-title: The Hauksbok Recension Of Landnamabok |
| Translated by: Matthias Egeler |
| ISBN10-13: 191407002X : 9781914070020 |
| Landnámabók, thought to have been first compiled in the twelfth century, documents the settlement of Iceland through accounts of some 430 settlers, their families and descendants. It was copied repeatedly throughout the Middle Ages and later, and survives in several redactions, all more or less fragmentary. This new translation is based on the version made by Haukr Erlendsson in the early fourteenth century, never before translated into English. The translator, Matthias Egeler, gives special attention to the texts sense of place, as conveyed in the place names bestowed on the land by the settlers and in the anecdotes told about them. The book is illustrated by numerous black and white photographs taken by the translator. It includes an introduction and an index of primary settlers, showing the relationship of the Hauksbók recension to that of Sturlubók. |
