“The cold, tingling air of the North sweeps bracingly through this magnificent novel, which covers fifty years in the life of Norwegian woodsfolk. In their ancient homestead in the forest, the Bjorndals, living an almost feudal life, are as straight and strong as the great trees that enclose them. How Dag Bjorndal took vengeance on a bear, how he came to traffic with the merchants, how ambition changed the tenor of his ways, now the old order gave place to the new - all these contributed to a story as exciting as it is tender, as virile as it is sensitive, and written with both passion and spiritual depth."
