Description - The Iceland Journal of Henry Holland, 1810 by Andrew Wawn

Sir Henry Holland was one of Victorian London's most celebrated physicians and tireless travellers. He showed all the Icelandophile enthusiasms of his time: a perception of unrivalled medieval literary achievements, a keen enjoyment of the sublimities of the scenery, and a scientific curiosity about Iceland's mineralogical legacy. He writes of all these, but also portrays a society gripped by privation resulting from the Napoleonic wars.
