The 21st of August 1238 has a strong resonance in Icelandic history. On that day two chieftains led their armies to fight their ambitious cousin. One warrior committed the cruelty and ruthlessness he had witnessed to memory so that he could recount and shape the event into a stirring and poignant narrative many decades later. His description lives on in Icelandic history – the Sturlanga saga, this recording is that story.
