There is that in Mr. Paul Du Chaillu’s “Ivar the Viking” which not only satisfies the lover of romantic adventure, but carries the scholar back into the remotest period of Scandinavian history. Beyond all living writers this traveller in and explorer of many countries has collected the documents and discovered the secrets of the Norselands.
New York Times.
The reader who has begun with a blank mind closes the volume with a tolerably clear expression of a very energetic, powerful, and wealthy young Viking, capable of strong affection, foremost in games and fights requiring physical force, and with a vast number of habits and customs. It is a history that interests through its simplicity.
The Nation.
“Ivar the Viking” is to be thoroughly recommended. The story is characteristically spirited, and the romantic part leaves nothing to be desired.
