Viking Britain: A History by Thomas J.T. Williams

4.0

A great balance between historical solidity and wistfulness in trying to understand these often maligned protagonists.

Last sentence of the book is indicative of the latter: “When we wait by the shoreline, with the sun dipping like blood into the west and the breakers crashing on the strand, we can still hear their voices singing with the tide, the grinding of keels on the shingle”
