Sparsemi, written in Icelandic, presents a compelling narrative relevant to the cultural and historical context of 19th-century Iceland. Authored by Samuel Smiles and published with the support of the Icelandic Thódvinafjelags, the book offers insights into the social and intellectual currents of the time. While precise biographical details require further context, the work itself stands as a valuable historical document, reflecting the spirit of Icelandic nationalism and cultural preservation efforts.
