Description: This book is a travelogue of the author's journey through Norway in the 19th century. The author provides detailed descriptions of the country's landscapes, people, and history. The author encountered friendly locals, despite being from far away. The countryside was full of natural wonders, but these could be harshly contrasted by the hardships of everyday life for the people living there. These hardships are exemplified by the village and people of Fogstuen Jerkind, who live a humble existence in a harsh environment. Yet, the difficulties of life in Fogstuen Jerkind did not diminish the people's warmth, shown when they welcomed the author into their homes. The author also recounts local myths and legends, providing insight into the rich cultural heritage of Norway.
