Beautiful Book

This is a very attractive book, with lots of pictures and descriptions, and very interesting text. The only disadvantages are the lack of useful maps, chronological data and more complete information regarding family lines. Still, it is a treasure of a book that is hard to put down.

I Love this book

I recently purchased this book and It describes everything you've ever wanted to know. The book starts with pre-viking scandanavia and then goes on to describe how they live, religion, boats, places traveled, warriors, the rise and fall, ect. If you love vikings, you have to get this book. The pictures are beautiful and Angust Konstam is a very well researched author. I also recommend Historical Atlas of the Celtic World.
