Yes yes yes, it is! I love Snorre Sturlason. The book I have includes various extracts from his Edda. (Loki and Svašilfari, Frey and Skirnir, Skaši's Marriage, Žor and Utgarša-Loki, and the Doom of the Gods.)
It also has part of the Volsunga Saga, Hrolfs Saga Kraka, Njals Saga, Žrymskviša and a whole lot more. It's GREAT.
