1615 Baskavigin

Jon Guomundsson

In the month of September 1615 three whale-hunting vessels from Gipuzkoa were shipwrecked in Iceland, right about the time when they were preparing for their return journey. 83 crewmembers survived the storm, but between thirty two and forty were killed in the following days. Jon Gudmundsson wrote an unbiased report on those events, and as a result he was declared an outlaw in his own country. This edition is produced on the occasion of the 400 anniversary of those tragic events. En septiembre de 1615 tres balleneros gipuzkoanos naufragaron en Islandia cuando se disponian a volver a sus casas despues de una provechosa campana de caza. Ochenta y tres marinos sobrevivieron a la tempestad pero entre treinta y dos y cuarenta de los mismos fueron asesinados en los dias sucesivos. Jon Gudmundsson el Sabio relato estos eventos por lo que fue condenado al exilio.
