The Saga of Colm the Slave Page 29
The account of Iceland’s adoption of Christianity is well-known. I have followed Jon Adalsteinsson’s Under the Cloak on most points.
Readers interested in knowing more about the background of Colm’s Saga are directed to Jesse Byock’s Viking Age Iceland for details on everyday life and an analysis of Snorri’s feuds. And, of course, to the Icelandic Sagas themselves, one of the world’s great literary treasures.
