Cameos from English History By Charlotte Mary Yonge, while returning from an expedition on the Baltic, made a descent on the coast of Viken, a part of Norway, and carried off the cattle wanted by his crew. The King, who happened at that time to be in that district, was highly displeased, and, assembling a council, declared Rolf Ganger an outlaw.

Our philosophy has been guided by a desire to provide the reader with a book that is as close as possible to ownership of the original work.
