It is well worth your time.""I'd recommend this book to anyone looking for an introductory history of the Viking Age.""This is a highly-readable overview of the 3 centuries of Viking exploration, raiding and leadership.xa0 I certainly enjoyed it.""This book is interesting and makes the Viking era come to life as facets ofthe culture are brought to life within its pages. I am enjoying it verymuch.""The language is conversational, even while relating someof the more obtuse facts about the Vikings, and that makes thiscompacted history readily understood and provides a solid resource ofknowledge that might be overlooked in today's environment.""While little actual written historical information exists about the Vikingculture, this account gathered from many sources is very revealing andpaints a very good picture of what the Vikings really were."
