"Translation of a 17th-century narrative written by a Lutheran pastor from Iceland who was captured by Turkish pirates, taken to North Africa, and then released and managed to make his way back across Europe to Iceland. His story, collected here with letters written by his fellow captives, gives intimate details of life, and relations between Christianity and Islam, in that period"--Provided by publisher.
