The Vikings: A History by Robert Ferguson

challenging informative slow-paced

I was certainly hoping for more cultural elements of the Vikings rather than lists of kings and battles and names and jumping between various centuries to prove points. The beginning of the where he would discuss artifacts like boats and relating it to archaeology was fascinating, as was the steady conversion from ‘heathen’ practices to Christianity, but it was incredibly dense and boring. I love reading nonfiction, but this was a tough one to get through.
