The Viking World
James Graham-Campbell
Foreword by David M. Wilson.
For 300 years, from the ninth to the eleventh centuries, the power of the Vikings dominated Western Europe. Their voyaging extended westwards to America and as far south as the Mediterranean and North Africa. As well as being warriors and accomplished seamen, they were jewellers, sculptors and poets of great skill and originality: the forts, town sites, ships, burial mounds, carved stones, place names, sagas, art and artefacts they left behind substantiate their legendary exploits.
An account of the Vikings, their world, their crafts and achievements, and their everyday lives is complemented by numerous maps, photographs, and artwork.
