Lots of pictures. Probably the single best book on period tablet weaving published to date. The Mastermyr Find from Sproge in the island of Gotland contains sets of metalworking and carpentry tools together with some objects rare for the Viking Period in Scandinavia, such as a steelyard, three bells and a firegrid. Detailed object description is complimented by 30 illustrative plates. Pre-medieval comparative material and the dating of the find are discussed as well as the ethnological aspects of the find.
Scale is given in all cases.
Some indications have surfaced that these tools are post-viking. Good descriptions of how the Oseburg, Tune and Gokstad ships were constructed and furnished. Photographs of the ships in situ and reconstructed. Photographs of artifacts found on the ships. Drawings of motifs carved into the ships or their furnishings.
