Based on the life of Harald Hardrada. Harald Hardrada met his death in 1066, fighting at Stamford Bridge against King Harold Godwinson of England. The story goes that when shown, a t his own request, the fatal arrow that had been taken out of him he remarked, 'yes, the man who made this knew his trade'. Snorri Sturluson's saga tells us quite a lot about Harald, and here, Henry Treece, creates part of Harald's early life in the form of a novel. This 1976 Beaver Books Paperback is in fair condition.
