Eddison wrote three other books: "Poems, Letters, and Memories of Philip Sidney Nairn" (1916), "Styrbiorn the Strong" (1926) and "Egil's Saga" (1930). The first was his tribute to a Trinity College friend, a poet, who, according to this source, died May 18, 1914, age 30, in Malaya, where he was a colonial administrator. According to another, possibly less reliable source, he is said to have died in his youth during World War I. The other two relate to the saga literature; the first is a historical novel which retells "Styrbjarnar þáttr Svíakappa" (alluded to in "Eyrbyggja Saga" and "Heimskringla"). The second is a direct translation from "Egil's saga", supplemented with extensive notes, some which explain Eddison's aesthetic and philosophical outlook.
