The Vikings hold a particular place in the history of the West, both symbolically and in the significant impact they had on Northern Europe. Magnus Magnusson’s indispensable study of this great period presents a rounded and fascinating picture of a people who, in modern eyes, would seem to embody striking contradictions. They were undoubtedly pillagers, raiders and terrifying warriors, but they were also great pioneers, artists and traders – a dynamic people, whose skill and daring in their exploration of the world has left an indelible impression a thousand years on. 320 pages

John Wimbush –
A fascinating and absorbing read. Lovely to note that the author is so proud of his heritage but not prepared to perpetuate myths, however favourable they are to his argument. Goes deep enough to let you know just how much more there is to learn and shows clearly how history and archaeology are an evolving process and that there is so much more to come.
