Through his trials Rolf is challenged to grow in manliness, developing courage, self-control, patriotism, and perseverance, and in the end rising above the feud that has consumed him for so long. The story, inspired by Icelandic sagas, serves as an excellent introduction to the prevailing values of the Viking era.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span><span><span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Additional information:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Ages:&nbsp; <\/strong><em>11-14<\/em><span><strong>Length:&nbsp;<\/strong><\/span><span>&nbsp;<em>251<\/em><\/span><em><span>&nbsp;pages<\/span><\/em><span><span><span><span><strong>Format:<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><span><span><span><span><strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><em><span><span>Paperback, Ebook<\/span><\/span><\/em><span><strong>Illustrations:<\/strong><\/span><em><strong><span>&nbsp;<\/span><\/strong><span><span><span><span><strong><\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><span>&nbsp;Black and white<\/span><\/em><span><span><span><span><strong>Year published:<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><span><span><span><span> <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><em><span><span><span><span>2007<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/em><span><span><span><strong>ISBN:<\/strong>&nbsp; <\/span><\/span><\/span><em><\/em><em>978-1-59915-207-3<\/em><span><span style=\"letter-spacing: px;\"><span style=\"letter-spacing: Npx;\"><span style=\"letter-spacing: Napx;\"><span style=\"letter-spacing: NaNpx;\"><span style=\"letter-spacing: .px;\"><span style=\"letter-spacing: px;\"><span style=\"letter-spacing: Npx;\"><span style=\"letter-spacing: Napx;\"><span style=\"letter-spacing: NaNpx;\"><span style=\"letter-spacing: .px;\"><span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><span><span><span><span style=\"letter-spacing: px;\"><span style=\"letter-spacing: Npx;\"><span style=\"letter-spacing: Napx;\"><span style=\"letter-spacing: NaNpx;\"><span style=\"letter-spacing: .px;\"><span style=\"letter-spacing: px;\"><span style=\"letter-spacing: Npx;\"><span style=\"letter-spacing: Napx;\"><span style=\"letter-spacing: NaNpx;\"><span style=\"letter-spacing: .px;\"><strong><span>Genres:<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><em><span><span><span><span style=\"letter-spacing: px;\"><span style=\"letter-spacing: Npx;\"><span style=\"letter-spacing: Napx;\"><span style=\"letter-spacing: NaNpx;\"><span style=\"letter-spacing: .px;\"><span style=\"letter-spacing: px;\"><span style=\"letter-spacing: Npx;\"><span style=\"letter-spacing: Napx;\"><span style=\"letter-spacing: NaNpx;\"><span style=\"letter-spacing: .px;\"><span>&nbsp; <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><span>World History, Historical Fiction<\/span><\/em>                    <\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Purchase book at Amazon<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Add print book to cart<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Add ebook to cart<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><strong><strong><strong><strong>Table of Contents<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em>1.
