The Last Vikings: The Epic Story of the Great Norse Voyagers
"A fascinating investigation into one of the most elusive mysteries of the far North. Kirsten Seaver brings to life a wonderful cast of Saga heroes, the Norse at their most outlandish and compelling."--Joanna Kavenna, author ofThe Ice Museum"The author has created  a highly successful synthesis from historical references, folklore, and archaeological reports to present a coherent account of a European people over a period of some five centuries, a feat of research all the more remarkable for the total absence of any document written by a Greenlander of Norse decent" -- Alan G. Macpherson,International Journal of Maritime History"…a book that makes the fascinating reality considerably more interesting than the fictional stories that have arisen about Norse activities in Greenland and America...manages to hold the reader’s attention until the very last page" -- Kirsten Wolf,Arctic
