The Vikings: A History by Robert Ferguson

4.0

Very in-depth, very knowledgeable, but also very dry. The book is a great read if you wanted updated on Norse history/Viking research, bringing most of it up to date. However, Ferguson has the historian's dry telling that makes what is a great story into something that is slightly less. If you want information and the resources that back it, this is a great book. However, be aware of it's shortcomings.
