Samenvatting

A colourful exploration into the history, training, weapons, lifestyles and legacy of the Vikings.

From Norway to Sicily, Russia to Ireland and across the Atlantic to North America, the Vikings traversed the globe in their pursuit of land and plunder. Renowned as merciless raiders from the sea, these fearless warriors ransacked the shores of Europe for more than 250 years. The legacy of the Vikings, including famous names like Erik the Red, Harald Hardrada and Cnut, still holds a crucial place in history and their actions left an incredible mark wherever they landed.

Featuring stunning artwork and photographs, this book examines the world of the Vikings, from their warrior customs and tactics to their weapons and iconic longships that allowed them to navigate treacherous waters and the homesteads where they raised families, built communities, and created the culture that still resonates today.
