Reseña del editor:

In issuing an edition for the Story of the Nations Series of Boyesen s Norway the publisher is very sensible of the loss he sustains in the fact that the gifted author is no longer alive to revise and complete the work. A concluding chapter bringing the modem history political and literary up to the present time hasj however, been supplied by the kindness of Mr. C. F. Keary, author of the Vikings in Western Christendom, and other works connected with Norse history and literature, as well as of numerous works in other fields. Hjalmar Hjorth Boyesen was born at Frederiksvarn in Norway, on the 23rd of September, 1848, and received his education in his mother country. He graduated at the University of Christiania in 1868, and the year following he emigrated to A merica, which was to be henceforth his home. He was appointed Professor of German at Cornell University in 1874, and retained that post till 1880, when he became Gebhard Professor of German and of Scandinavian Literature at Columbia College, New York. Arriving in America with an adequate knowledge of the language, he soon became a proficient in English, and began to write in that language.
