rebeccacider's review
5.0
Head and shoulders above most glossy tabletop history books. It was published in conjunction with an exhibition at the British Museum, so there you go.
This book does a fabulous job exploring the Vikings' place in the greater cultural landscape of 8th–11th c. Europe and providing access to archaeological findings (and using the later written sources with a heaping tablespoon of salt).
