Jon Sveinsson ("Nonni") is the only Jesuit priest ever born in Iceland. He left his homeland as a boy, with his beloved brother Armann ("Manni"), to follow their mutual call to become Jesuit missionaries. Although Manni has since passed on during his studies, Nonni is now the Reverend Jon Sveinsson S. J. The boys had wished to become Jesuit missionaries, like St. Francis Xavier, yet Jon Sveinsson has spent most of his time in the order as either a student, and now an instructor, in academia. Still longing to fulfill his dream of being a missionary he has volunteered to travel to Iceland to care for the souls of his fellow countrymen. Such is the premise of this classic Icelandic travelogue written by the man who would later become one of the most beloved children's authors of all time. With pictures and published in large print (www.c2op.com).
