The Hero of Esthonia and Other Studies in the Romantic Literature of That Country

Note 92 — CANTO XVI

Reading edition

Baring-Gould ingeniously suggests that this country is Greenland, and that the Dog-men are Esquimaux, clad in furs, and riding in dog-sledges. The end of this canto is inconsequential, for the hero should have reached his goal during this voyage, not by a land-journey afterwards.
