IT has been my ambition for many years to write a , chiefly because no such book, worthy of the name, exists in the English language. When the pu blishers of the present volume proposed to me to write the story of my native land, I there­ fore eagerly accepted their offer. The story, how­ ever, according to their plan, was to differ in some important respects from a regular history. It was to dwell particularly upon the dramatic phases of his­ torical events, and concern itself but slightly with the growth of institutions and sociological phsnomena. It therefore necessarily takes small account of pro­ portion. In the present volume more space is given to the national hero, Olaf Tryggvesson, whose brief reign was crowded with dramatic events, than to kings who reigned ten times as long. For the same reason the four centuries of the Union with are treated with comparative brevity. Many thing happened, no doubt, during those cen­ turies, but .. there were few deed6,'· Moreover, the separate history of Norway, in the time of her degra­ dation, has never proved an attractive theme to v vi THE STORY OF NORWAY.

Norse historians, for which reason the period has been generally neglected. The principal sources of which I have availed my­ self in the preparation of the present volume, are Snorre Sturlasson: Nurgu KongesagtUr (Christiania, 1859,2 vols.); P. A. Munch: Drl Norsk,. Folks Ilis­ lurie (Christiania, 1852, 6 vols.); R. Keyser: E/ler­ ladle Skrijler (Christianii, 1866, 2 vols.); Sam/ede A/kandlinger (1868); J. E. Sars: Udsigl (fI.rr den Nurske Hisluric (Christiania, 1877, 2 vol •. ); K. Maurer: Die Bckekrung drs NurwegiscllClt Slammo :rum Ckrislmlk,,,1U (Munchen, 1856, 2 vols.), and Dit Enlslekung des Is/iindiscken Slaaies (M unchen, 1852); G. Vigfusson: Slur/unga Saga (Oxford, 1878, 2 vols.); and Um Ihna/a! I Iskndinga sugum ; /urnd/d (con­ tained in Sa/n Iii sugu Islands, 185;); G. Storm: Snurrt Siur/asson's His/oricskrivniJlg (Kjobenhavn, 1878); C. F. Allen: Haandbog; FtZdrtlalUk/s Ilis/urit (Kjobenhavn, 1863); besides a large number of scat­ tered articles in German and Scandinavian historical magazines. A question which has presented many . difficulties is the spelling of proper names. To adopt in every instance the ancient Icelandic form would scarcely be practicable, because the names in their modernized forms are usually familiar and easy to pronounce, while, in their Icelandic disguises, they are to English readers nearly unpronouncable, and present a needlessly forbidding appearance. Where a name has no well-recognized English equivalent, I have therefore adopted the modem Norwegian form, which usually differs from the ancient, in having dropped a 6na1letter. Thus Sigurdr (which with an PREFACE. lSUUVIi"i PClClNj English genitive would be Sigurdr's) modern Norwegian Sigurd, Eirikr, Erik, etc. Those surnames, which are descriptive epithets, I have translated where they are easily translatable, thus writing Harold the Fairhaired, , Olaf the Saint, etc. Absolute consistency would, however, give to some names a too cumbrous look, as, for instance, Einar th~ Twanger of Thamb (Thamb being the name of his bow), and I have in such instances kept the Norse name (Thambars­ kelver). It is a pleasant duty to acknowledge my indebted. ness for valuable criticism to my friends, E. Munroe Smith, J. V.D., Adjunct Professor of History in Columbia College, and Hon. Rasmus B. Andersen, V nited States Minister to Denmark, without whose kindly aid in procuring books, maps, etc., the diffi· culties in the preparation of the present volume would' have been much increased. I am also under obligation to Dr. W. H. Carpenter, of Columbia College, and to the Norwegian artist, Mr. H.N. Gausta, of La Crosse, Wis., who hali kindly sent me two spirited original compositions, illustrative of peasant.life in Norway. HJALMAR H. BOYESEN. COLUMBIA COLLEGE. NEW YOlK. April 15, 1886.
