The Orkneyinga Saga and Magnus Saga with Appendices is a book written by Gudbrand Vigfusson in 1887. The book contains two sagas - the Orkneyinga Saga and the Magnus Saga.

The Magnus Saga, on the other hand, is a biography of Magnus Erlendsson, Earl of Orkney, who was killed in 1117. The book is written in Old Norse, and the English translation is provided alongside the original text. The appendices include notes on the history and culture of the Orkney Islands, as well as genealogical tables of the ruling families.

It provides insights into the political, social, and cultural dynamics of the region during this period.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
