"Written with an eye to a knowledgeable and contentious group of native Icelandic historians, THE CHRISTIANIZATION OF ICELAND contains much detail which will be of interest only to the native reader. Nevertheless, the broad story it tells is engrossing, both for scholars and Icelandic culture, and for comparative historians of the medieval European Church.[A] thoroughly documented and thoughtful account of the rise of an anomalous and uniquely Icelandic institution."Vésteinsson, Orri is the author of 'Christianization of Iceland Priests, Power, and Social Change 1000-1300' with ISBN 9780198207993 and ISBN 0198207999.
