Description

The Victorian Web notes a two-column format and experimented with Roman scripts. Trial pages for three other works in the group are bound in with the Kormak: four pages of The Story of Frithiof the Bold, a page of Snorri Sturluson's Heimskringla, and two pages of the poem Hafbur and Signy. Morris was deeply involved in his studies and translations of Icelandic sagas at this time.
