The Vikings Paperback / softback
by Else Roesdahl
Paperback / softback
Description
Far from being just 'wild, barbaric, axe-wielding pirates', the Vikings created complex social institutions, oversaw the coming of Christianity to Scandinavia and made a major impact on European history through trade, travel and far-flung consolidation.
This encyclopedic study brings together the latest research on Viking art, burial customs, class divisions, jewellery, kingship, poetry and family life.
The result is a rich and compelling picture of an extraordinary civilisation.
