American Vikings : how the Norse sailed into the lands and imaginations of America Cover Image Book

American Vikings : how the Norse sailed into the lands and imaginations of America / Martyn Whittock.

Whittock, Martyn, 1958- (author.).

Summary:

Separating fact from fiction, myth from legend, this assessment of the enduring legacy of the claim that Vikings reached North America around the year 1000 doubles as a journey from the high seas of a millennium ago to rough waters and dark undercurrents of the online world today.
