West under the glacier. By Gísli Sigurðsson. This is the fourth volume in the book series Seiður lands og sagna.
This book weaves together the nature and history of the area sometimes called south of the glaciers. The amazing and picturesque nature east of Lón and west to Markarfljót is discussed, the topography and geology are explained in an accessible way. Light is shed on the country's famous historical sites, the course of history is recalled, stories of individual people are told, but the spotlight is also directed at the present day. Hundreds of photographs, drawings and maps create a magnificent setting for the text, so that it becomes a fascinating work of art. (Bókatíðindi 2006).
