About this book
Join Ethel and her four traveling companions as they visit Iceland in 1887. Rough seas, cold temperatures, and difficult riding do not deter them. They visit small towns, the large capital, and the famous Geyser. Interspersed in the travelogue are Ethel’s observations, from her notably British and privileged viewpoint, of the people of Iceland and the beauty of its landscape. (Curious listeners may want to read the author’s extensive table of monetary conversions on page 72 of the book.) (Summary by Jennifer Fournier) Jennifer Fournier, the narrator, would like to thank Mardah Cohen Weinfield
