Early Kings of Norway is a historical book written by Thomas Carlyle, a Scottish philosopher, and historian. The book provides a detailed account of the early kings of Norway, including their lives, accomplishments, and impact on Norwegian history. The narrative begins with the legendary king Odin and continues through the reigns of Harald Fairhair, Eric Bloodaxe, and Olaf Tryggvason. Carlyle's writing style is engaging and informative, providing readers with a comprehensive understanding of the early Norwegian monarchy. The book is an excellent resource for anyone interested in Norse history, mythology, and culture. Overall, Early Kings of Norway is a fascinating read that offers valuable insights into the early history of one of Europe's most intriguing nations.Harald took the sword, drew it, or was half drawing it, admiringly from the scabbard, when the English excellency broke into a scornful laugh, Ha, ha; thou art now the feudatory of my English king; thou hast accepted the sword from him, and art now his man! (acceptance of a sword in that manner being the symbol of investiture in those days.) Harald looked a trifle flurried, it is probable; but held in his wrath, and did no damage to the tricksy Englishman.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
